Didn't Jets fans chant "you're a back up" to him in the playoffs?

Seems like the kind of backup you sign if you are keeping Hellebuyck.

now he's you're our back up!

Welcome Back!

Not sure. He posted pretty good numbers in Vegas although their team was very, very good.

I think he might be the guy to take over when Hellebyuck gets traded and he will get traded at some point.

Chevy won't let Hellebyuck go for nothing.

He had the net for Vegas. If he didn't get injured, he may have had Hill's contract.

Better not be as a starter but I'm cool with him back as a backup
Also he seemed to be friends with Hellebuyck so that's not a bad move

 

[Guardian17]

Glad he's back!

If you can't beat em...

He had a real up and down year last year, but he finished the season strong. He looked a little shakey against Edmonton, and I'd be worried about his health.

He had the net for Vegas. If he didn't get injured, he may have had Hill's contract.

If he'd stayed healthy, he'd have gotten more dinero. Sad it works that way.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Good to see him getting a shot at being a starter with the Jets.

This definitely signals that Chevy is getting ready to move Hellebuyck. Helle and Bro are friends, but we have three one-way goalie contracts, Salminen and likely Milic on the Moose - a move is likely. Glad to have Brossoit back though, money is the only reason why we let him go.

Didn’t he hurt his hip again??

he's back to training, chevy said that brossoit said he could have played in a pinch if they needed him

Who knows if he's telling the full story but for what it's worth Chevy said that the current plan is for Brossoit to back up Helle and both guys were happy to play with the other again.
