After Connor Hellebuyck's heroic performance to help the USA secure a Gold Medal in a 2-1 overtime win over Canada at the Olympics on Sunday, the Jets will turn to Comrie to tend the twine in their return to action. Comrie did not play much leading up to the Olympic break, but performed well when called upon, winning three straight outings while posting a 1.00 GAA and a .960 SV%.
After a miserable 3-15-5 record, the Jets have seemingly turned a corner, winning five of their last six (5-0-1), and will turn to Comrie on Tuesday in the tail-end of a back-to-back. Comrie struggled during the Jets' recent slide down the standings, posting a 3.52 GAA and .866 SV% in 11 games (2-8-1), but was solid in his most recent outing, saving 23 of 24 shots (.958 SV%) in a 5-1 win over the Los Angeles Kings. The Jets enter Tuesday's contest as -121 home favorites against a St. Louis Blues team coming off a 5-0 loss to the Edmonton Oilers.

The Jets are on the tail-end of a back-to-back on Friday, so it will be Comrie who gets the latest chance of ending Winnipeg's prolonged losing streak. Comrie, as you might have guessed, was tagged with the loss in his last start, allowing six goals on 30 shots in a 6-5 loss to the Maple Leafs on New Year's Day. The 30-year-old netminder brings a 6-9-1 record and an .880 SV% into Friday night's matchup, where the Jets enter action at +110 on the money line.
Connor Hellebuyck will get the night off in favour of Comrie on Thursday as the Jets gear up for the tail-end of a back-to-back. Comrie's last start came back on December 11th when he allowed five goals on 23 shots in a 6-3 loss to the Bruins. Comrie carries a 6-8-1 record and an .886 SV% into Thursday night's matchup with the Leafs, where the Jets enter action at +115 on the money line.
Connor Hellebuyck (knee) returned to practice on Wednesday, but Comrie will continue to occupy the crease on Thursday against the Boston Bruins. The 30-year-old Comrie has struggled, as have the Jets, since Hellebuyck's injury, posting a concerning sub- .800 SV% in three of his last five games (1-3-1). He has a 3.16 GAA and .892 SV% in 14 games this season (6-7-1). The Jets enter Thursday's contest as -148 home favorites against a Bruins team that has scored four or more goals in four straight games (3-1-0).
The Jets have fallen down the standings since the absence of Connor Hellebuyck (knee), going 3-5-1 in nine games, relying almost exclusively on Eric Comrie. Understandably, the 30-year-old Comrie has been unable to fill the void of the three-time Vezina-winning goalie, but he has still posted less-than-ideal results. Comrie has a 2.90 GAA and .892 SV% in eight games (2-5-1) since Hellebucyk's injury. The Jets enter Tuesday's contest as +115 home underdogs against one of the hottest teams in the NHL, the Dallas Stars, who are 13-1-2 in their last 16 games.

Comrie and the Jets have struggled lately and lost 3-2 in a shootout against the Montreal Canadiens on Wednesday despite Comrie's best performance, saving 29 of 31 shots (.935 SV%), since Connor Hellebuyck (knee) has been sidelined. The 30-year-old Comrie has a 2.99 GAA and .897 SV% in 11 games (5-5-1) and will be desperate to return to the win column on Friday against his former team, the Buffalo Sabres. The Jets enter Friday's contest as -129 home favourites.

Since Connor Hellebuyck (knee) has been sidelined, Comrie has not been able to fill the void of the Vezina-winning netminder, posting an ugly 3.20 GAA and .877 SV% in five games (1-4-0). Before Hellebuyck's injury, Comrie was excellent as his backup, posting a 2.60 GAA and .908 SV% in five outings (4-1-0). Comrie returns to the crease on Wednesday, with the Jets entering action as -117 road favorites against a Montreal Canadiens team that has been outscored 12-4 in their last two games (0-2-0).

The Jets have struggled without Connor Hellebuyck (knee), but finally recorded their first win in five games without him (1-4-0), a 5-2 victory over the Nashville Predators, in which Comrie saved 20 of 22 shots (.909 SV%). The Jets will hope Comrie's first win as their de facto starting netminder will give him momentum to improve on his 2.91 GAA and .898 SV% in nine games (5-4-0) this season. The Jets enter Monday's contest as +101 road underdogs against a Buffalo Sabres team that has scored two or fewer goals in three straight games (1-2-0).

Comrie has started both games since Connor Hellebuyck (knee) announced out for the next 4-6 weeks, but has not produced favourable results in those games (0-2-0), allowing seven goals on 58 combined shots (.879 SV%). The 30-year-old Comrie has a 2.87 GAA and .899 SV% through seven games this season (4-3-0). He has never started more than 20 games in a season, a total that he should have no problem surpassing in 2025-26. The Jets enter Wednesday's contest as +129 road underdogs against a Washington Capitals team that has scored five or more goals in three of their last four games (3-1-0).
With Connor Hellebuyck sidelined for several weeks after undergoing a minor Arthroscopic knee procedure, Comrie will likely see a heavy workload for the Jets, starting with Friday's game against the Carolina Hurricanes. Comrie started a career-high 20 games last season, a total he will surely surpass with Hellebuyck out of the lineup. The 30-year-old Comrie has been solid in limited action this season, posting a 2.60 GAA and .908 SV% in five games (4-1-0). The Jets enter Friday's contest as +138 road underdogs against a Hurricanes team that has points in eight of its last 10 games (6-2-2).
