Hellebuyck Trades the Crease for the Pace Lap

Connor Hellebuyck is taking a very different kind of spotlight, swapping his usual goalie routine for a grand marshal role at MIS. It is the sort of crossover moment that reminds you star athletes get pulled into all kinds of local events once their name carries real weight. The novelty is obvious, but so is the pull of seeing a hockey star step into a scene that is completely outside the rink. Even away from the blue paint, Hellebuyck still draws attention like he is facing a power play.
