What happened: Yahoo Sports' NHL rumor roundup said Connor Hellebuyck still had no trade in place entering the final stretch before camp. The same roundup said Jake DeBrusk wants to remain with the Vancouver Canucks.

Why it matters: That keeps a major offseason goalie file unresolved deep into September, when leverage often shifts as teams get closer to camp. For Vancouver, DeBrusk's stance lands in the middle of a rebuild focused on veteran trade math, where keeping veterans and flipping them for future assets point in different directions.

What to watch: The next signal is whether camp movement changes either market. Vancouver's choice on DeBrusk will show how aggressively it plans to keep reshaping the roster before the 2025-26 season.
