How much salary has Connor Hellebuyck forfeited while away from the Winnipeg Jets?
A fan-made tracker has put a running number on Connor Hellebuyck’s absence from the Winnipeg Jets.
The reported forfeited amount
The Hockey News reported that, as of Friday morning, Hellebucks.com showed Hellebuyck had forfeited more than $399,000.
The site is a fan-made tracker, not an official league or team source, and it is following how much salary Hellebuyck is giving up while away from the Jets.
Why the number is changing
TheScore reported that Hellebuyck is sitting out at the start of the season after making a trade request. The Jets suspended him in mid-September after he did not report to training camp.
TheScore also reported that he had five years and $42.5 million remaining on his contract when the trade request was made.
What to watch
Because the tracker is tied to an ongoing absence, the amount can change. For the latest figure, check the tracker or the most recent reporting before relying on a specific total.
