Amid the whirlwind of Magnus Hellberg’s wild ride as a well\u002Dtravelled pro goaltender, he has left pieces of old equipment here, there and everywhere.
So when the Detroit Red Wings re-acquired him in November off waivers after a crazy month that also saw him play with the Ottawa Senators and practice with the Seattle Kraken, Hellberg knew exactly where to find the red-and-white Red Wings pads he wore for one game in 2021-22: Sitting in storage with his fishing boat back home in Uppsala, Sweden.Sign up to receive daily headline news from Ottawa Citizen, a division of Postmedia Network Inc.
There he was Monday night, aiming to put a dagger into the Senators post-season hopes. In nine games with the Red Wings before Monday, he had a 4-4-1 record, 2.56 goals against average and .907 save percentage, part of the tandem that also includes Ville Husso. He was also a piece of the Senators’ 4-0 start to the regular season, stopping 29 shots to defeat the Dallas Stars 4-2. In the process, Hellberg, who also registered one victory each with the New York Rangers in 2016-17 and the Red Wings last season, became the first goaltender in NHL history to win his first three games with three different teams.
Asked if he ever thinks about all the stops and starts it took to see regular NHL action — he had played in a total of five games with four teams before this season — he says he’s proud of his perseverance and of being supported by those closest to him.
