Get him in Wings gear!!

@tj_morris I think we might be getting ahead of ourselves here - Hellebuyck's numbers have declined significantly over the past two seasons and his expected goals rate per 60 is around 2.9, which is below league average. The Wings don't need a stopgap solution but rather someone who can stabilize the position long-term, like someone from their own system like Dryden McKay or Lukáš Parik.
