Hellebuyck started and won three of the Jets' four consecutive victories last week, extending his personal point streak to 12 (10-0-2) and helping Winnipeg (26-9-4) climb to first place in the NHL overall standings.
Reinhart scored two game-winning goals to give him a league-leading seven on the season and his 13th power-play goal, which is also tops in the NHL.
He leads the Panthers with 28 goals and 50 points this season and was named an NHL all-star last week for the first time in his career.
Jones picked up the 30th shutout of his career in a 3-0 victory over the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday.
The 11-year NHL veteran has a 7-3-0 record with a 2.08 goals-against average and .932 save percentage in 11 appearances this season.
