San Jose Sharks Reject Winnipeg Jets Trade Offer
The Winnipeg Jets have been trying to trade goaltender Connor Hellebuyck for months, and haven't been able to find a deal they like. Hellebuyck demanded a trade during his exit interview after last season, and if he's moved at some point early on, it sounds like there's been plenty of back and forth with the San Jose Sharks.
