Jets aren't going to do Helle any favors it looks like. Good. Wonder if they can get out of paying him too. I believe Helle's contract can just shift a year ahead too if he refuses to report all year.

The Winnipeg Jets announced today they have suspended goaltender Connor Hellebuyck for failure to report to training camp.
General Manager Kevin Cheveldayoff will address the media at 10:30 a.m. tomorrow, Thursday, Sept. 17th, at hockey for all centre.

Twenty years ago I thought the Oilers should have done the same thing with Pronger. Deny his trade request, and suspend him if/when he doesn't show up for camp and wait him out.
Wonder if they had been more hard ass, if things would have been better or worse in the long run. Considering the next ten years, it could hardly have gone worse.

There is no way it could have gotten worse.

I think Lowe was quoted very recently about how he wishes he made Pronger just sit and let the heat die down. I would guess Lowe was just super overconfident in himself and that everything he touched would keep turning into gold because of his winning pedigree. He probably didn't think it was that big a deal to lose Pronger. Just needed to keep using his inherent Lowe winning powers to quickly build things back up to a contender.
Chevy in Winnipeg though. He knows Helle is THE piece to keep his team competitive for the foreseeable future. Either by Helle playing, or by getting something very good in return for him. One of those 2 things don't happen, the outcome is basically the same with any other action. Jets are going to struggle a lot.
