In a bid to solidify their playoff aspirations, the NHL team is counting on goaltender Ville Helenius to secure a top-nine role in the coming season. With a strong preseason performance, Helenius is looking to prove himself as a reliable backup option behind the team's starting goalie. However, the Finnish netminder is not the only one vying for a spot in the team's crease, as fellow goaltenders Mrtka and Rudolph are waiting in the wings, ready to pounce on any opportunity to make a statement and potentially unseat Helenius from his coveted role. As the team's coaching staff continues to make roster decisions, fans are left wondering who will ultimately emerge as the team's go-to backup goalie.
