2025 Projections
Signed a three-year contract with Djurgarden IF (Sweden) in June of 2025.
Signs with Swedish club
Hellberg agreed to terms on a three-year contract with Djurgardens IF on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Hellberg spent the 2024-25 campaign with AHL Texas, logging 41 regular-season games for the minor-league club in which he posted a 24-14-1 record, .904 save percentage and 2.69 GAA. Despite the solid numbers, Hellberg was on the NHL roster for just one game this past year as he was firmly cemented behind Casey DeSmith as the No. 3 netminder. Given the length of his deal, this move all but spells the end of Hellberg's NHL career, with the Swedish backstop set to eventually retire having played in 26 NHL games for the Predators, Rangers, Red Wings, Senators and Penguins.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2015
Hellberg split time between a pair of non-playoff teams in Ottawa and Detroit a season ago, posting mediocre numbers (5-8-1, 3.21 GAA, .888 save percentage) in the process. The 32-year-old Swede had a stellar run in the KHL from 2017-18 to 2021-22, but he's never been able to find his way in North America. Hellberg signed a one-year, $785K contract with the Penguins in free agency. He is expected to open the season as the starter for AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton and will only see significant NHL playing time should an injury befall either Tristan Jarry or Alex Nedeljkovic.
