What happened: Hellebuyck said he privately sought a move several months ago and believes leaving Winnipeg is best for his family. Elliotte Friedman said Colorado is closing in on a new deal with Makar.

Why it matters: Hellebuyck has five years remaining at an $8.5 million annual cap hit, complicating Winnipeg's search for a trade. Makar is entering the final season of a contract carrying a $9 million annual cap hit.

What to watch: Watch for movement before camp opens and whether Colorado finalizes Makar's extension.
