Connor Hellebuyck Feels Real
Utah lost 5-3 in Seattle, and Austin’s whole point is that this team keeps making life harder than it has to be because it isn’t getting the best goaltending on the ice. Seattle got a .917 night from Philipp Grubauer, while Karel Vejmelka stopped 18 of 22 for an .818 save percentage, and that keeps fitting a bad trend.
Over Utah’s last three games, Austin says the Mammoth goalies have posted a combined .774 save percentage while opposing goalies are at .892. That’s why the Connor Hellebuyck conversation suddenly feels a lot less theoretical and a lot more urgent.
