After eleven seasons anchoring the Winnipeg Jets, Connor Hellebuyck — three-time Vezina Trophy winner and Olympic gold medalist — has formally confirmed what many suspected: he is seeking a new home. The announcement, timed to the eve of training camp, closes a chapter on one of the most significant player-franchise relationships in recent NHL history. It is a reminder that even the most enduring loyalties eventually meet the horizon of personal reckoning, and that the architecture of a team can quietly shift long before the public is told.
