Hellebuyck is expected to start at home against Washington on Thursday.
Hellebuyck has been fantastic since the Devils acquired him from Winnipeg, going 5-0-0 with a 1.96 GAA and a .913 save percentage across five starts. The Capitals are a difficult assignment, though. They're 10-6-0 and rank eighth in goals per game with 3.50 this season. Washington has also won seven of its past 10 games while averaging 3.70 goals per game, so the Capitals haven't shown any signs of slowing down.
