Samuel Helenius News: Notches assist Saturday
Helenius posted an assist, three hits and four blocked shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Red Wings.
Helenius has two helpers over his first four NHL outings. The 21-year-old hasn't hesitated to show toughness either, racking up 12 hits, seven PIM and four blocked shots while filling a fourth-line role. Helenius was called up to cover for Tanner Jeannot's three-game suspension, but Jeannot was back Saturday, so it's unclear if Helenius will stick around the NHL much longer. He's done enough to get a longer look.
