What happened: The early-season performance of the Jets could increase the trade returns for Connor Hellebuyck, per Ray Ferraro and Darren Dreger. The team's hot start might improve the organization's leverage in moving the goaltender.

Why it matters: Hellebuyck remains suspended following a training camp no-show amid his unresolved situation. Strong play without him could help the franchise secure a better package despite the hurdle of his no-movement clause.

What to watch: The early-season play of Connor, Perfetti, and Bjorck will remain a key factor in the team's ongoing success.
