Comrie will start vs. San Jose on Thursday.

Entering their final game of a disappointing 2025-26 season, the reigning Presidents' Trophy-winning Winnipeg Jets will prepare for an offseason without playoff hockey after one final game on Thursday, turning to Comrie to tend the twine against the San Jose Sharks. The 30-year-old Comrie allowed four goals on 35 shots (.886 SV%) in his previous outing, a 5-3 loss to the Utah Mammoth. That said, Comrie had been on an impressive run heading into the game, posting a 1.48 GAA and .943 SV% in his previous six starts (6-0-0). The Jets enter Thursday's contest as -157 home favourites against a Sharks team that has lost four of their last five (1-3-1).

A day after being officially eliminated from playoff contention, the Jets will turn to Comrie to tend the twine in their second-last game of the regular season.

The Jets enter Tuesday's contest as +163 road underdogs against a Utah Mammoth team that has been outscored 8-2 during a two-game losing skid (0-2-0).

After Connor Hellebuyck's heroic performance to help the USA secure a Gold Medal in a 2-1 overtime win over Canada at the Olympics on Sunday, the Jets will turn to Comrie to tend the twine in their return to action. Comrie did not play much leading up to the Olympic break, but performed well when called upon, winning three straight outings while posting a 1.00 GAA and a .960 SV%.

Comrie will start against the Blues on Tuesday.

After a miserable 3-15-5 record, the Jets have seemingly turned a corner, winning five of their last six (5-0-1), and will turn to Comrie on Tuesday in the tail-end of a back-to-back. Comrie struggled during the Jets' recent slide down the standings, posting a 3.52 GAA and .866 SV% in 11 games (2-8-1), but was solid in his most recent outing, saving 23 of 24 shots (.958 SV%) in a 5-1 win over the Los Angeles Kings. The Jets enter Tuesday's contest as -121 home favorites against a St. Louis Blues team coming off a 5-0 loss to the Edmonton Oilers.

Comrie will start against the Kings on Friday.

The Jets are on the tail-end of a back-to-back on Friday, so it will be Comrie who gets the latest chance of ending Winnipeg's prolonged losing streak. Comrie, as you might have guessed, was tagged with the loss in his last start, allowing six goals on 30 shots in a 6-5 loss to the Maple Leafs on New Year's Day. The 30-year-old netminder brings a 6-9-1 record and an .880 SV% into Friday night's matchup, where the Jets enter action at +110 on the money line.

Connor Hellebuyck will get the night off in favour of Comrie on Thursday as the Jets gear up for the tail-end of a back-to-back. Comrie's last start came back on December 11th when he allowed five goals on 23 shots in a 6-3 loss to the Bruins. Comrie carries a 6-8-1 record and an .886 SV% into Thursday night's matchup with the Leafs, where the Jets enter action at +115 on the money line.

Comrie will start vs. Boston on Thursday.

Connor Hellebuyck (knee) returned to practice on Wednesday, but Comrie will continue to occupy the crease on Thursday against the Boston Bruins. The 30-year-old Comrie has struggled, as have the Jets, since Hellebuyck's injury, posting a concerning sub- .800 SV% in three of his last five games (1-3-1). He has a 3.16 GAA and .892 SV% in 14 games this season (6-7-1). The Jets enter Thursday's contest as -148 home favorites against a Bruins team that has scored four or more goals in four straight games (3-1-0).

Comrie will start against the Stars on Tuesday.

The Jets have fallen down the standings since the absence of Connor Hellebuyck (knee), going 3-5-1 in nine games, relying almost exclusively on Eric Comrie. Understandably, the 30-year-old Comrie has been unable to fill the void of the three-time Vezina-winning goalie, but he has still posted less-than-ideal results. Comrie has a 2.90 GAA and .892 SV% in eight games (2-5-1) since Hellebucyk's injury. The Jets enter Tuesday's contest as +115 home underdogs against one of the hottest teams in the NHL, the Dallas Stars, who are 13-1-2 in their last 16 games.

Comrie and the Jets have struggled lately and lost 3-2 in a shootout against the Montreal Canadiens on Wednesday despite Comrie's best performance, saving 29 of 31 shots (.935 SV%), since Connor Hellebuyck (knee) has been sidelined. The 30-year-old Comrie has a 2.99 GAA and .897 SV% in 11 games (5-5-1) and will be desperate to return to the win column on Friday against his former team, the Buffalo Sabres. The Jets enter Friday's contest as -129 home favourites.

Comrie returns to the crease on Wednesday, with the Jets entering action as -117 road favorites against a Montreal Canadiens team that has been outscored 12-4 in their last two games (0-2-0).
