Hellebuyck will start in Vancouver on Tuesday.

The Jets have only scored two combined goals in their last three games (0-3-0) and will need Hellebuyck to be near-perfect on Tuesday if their offense continues to struggle. The 32-year-old goalie, a two-time reigning Vezina Trophy winner, has been solid this season, posting a 2.30 GAA and .922 SV% through 11 games, but only has a 6-5-0 record to show for it, as his team ranks in the bottom half of the league offensively. The Jets enter Tuesday's contest as -116 road favorites against the Vancouver Canucks.

Samberg (wrist) practiced in a regular jersey on Tuesday and is getting close to returning.

Samberg has yet to play this season, recovering from a wrist injury during training camp, but appears to be nearing his season debut after practicing on Tuesday.

Hellebuyck will start in San Jose on Friday.

The Jets will turn to Hellebuyck between the pipes for the 11th time this season when they travel to San Jose to take on the Sharks on Friday. Hellebuyck was unfortunate to be tagged with the loss in his last outing, stopping 23 of the 25 shots he faced in a 3-0 defeat in Los Angeles on Tuesday. The reigning Hart Trophy winner is a good bet to get back in the win column on Friday, as the Jets enter action at -190 on the money line.

Miller is expected to be a healthy scratch vs. San Jose on Friday.

Luke Schenn will draw back into Winnipeg's lineup on Friday against the San Jose Sharks, sending Miller to the press box as a healthy scratch. The 33-year-old Miller has been used sparsely this season, averaging only 11:32 time-on-ice through four games this season.

Lambert, the 30th-overall pick in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft, has yet to make his mark at the NHL level, scoring three points (1G / 2A) in 10 games combined over the last three seasons. Nikita Chibrikov will draw into the lineup as Lamert's replacement.

Brad Lambert
Perfetti (ankle) practiced in a regular jersey on Friday.

Perfetti suffered an ankle injury during the Jets' preseason finale and has been sidelined since, but appears to be nearing an imminent return after practicing on Friday. The 23-year-old Perfetti was originally expected to play on the team's top powerplay unit. That said, it's unclear if Perfetti will re-join the top powerplay unit, as Alex Iafallo has filled Perfetti's role adequately, helping the team garner a top-10 powerplay unit.
