Adam Lowry addresses Connor Hellebuyck trade request before training camp
Summary

Winnipeg Jets captain Adam Lowry addressed the trade request made by goaltender Connor Hellebuyck last month. Hellebuyck enters the new season under contract with the club despite ongoing speculation regarding his future with the team. Lowry told reporters that the locker room remains focused on preparing for the upcoming campaign rather than speculating on potential roster moves. The Jets seek a rebound performance after failing to qualify for the playoffs during the 2025-26 season. Hellebuyck, a former Hart Trophy winner, recorded an.895 save percentage while dealing with injuries last year. The team is scheduled to open the 2026-27 regular season against the Boston Bruins on October 2. Whether Hellebuyck remains in the crease for that game remains uncertain as management continues to handle his status.
