New Jersey Devils goaltender Connor Hellebuyck has requested a trade, citing "challenging circumstances" involving his family as one of the reasons, according to a report from The Associated Press on Wednesday.
The 2026-27 season has seen Hellebuyck appear in games for the Devils, including matches against the Vegas Golden Knights on October 30 and the Edmonton Oilers on November 3. The trade request comes amid personal matters that the goaltender described as difficult family circumstances.
No further details about the specific circumstances or potential destinations were immediately disclosed. The Devils organization has not yet commented publicly on the request.
