Dwayne Roloson is stepping down as the Ducks’ goaltending consultant due to family reasons, Ducks general manager Bob Murray confirmed.

NHL.com correspondent Kevin Woodley first reported the move on his Twitter account. Roloson, 46, succeeded Pete Peeters as goalie coach and held the position for the three seasons, mostly working with John Gibson, Frederik Andersen, Jonas Hiller and Viktor Fasth.

Team sources say it is possible that Roloson, a former NHL goalie with 227 wins, may stay with the organization in a more limited capacity. Roloson once dressed for the Ducks as an emergency goalie in a November 2014 game due to an injury to Gibson but did not play.

Sudarshan Maharaj, who has worked primarily with the San Diego Gulls at the AHL level and has often guided Gibson, is considered to be the leading candidate to replace Roloson. A formal announcement on a new hire could come next week.

The Ducks continue to have discussions with defenseman Hampus Lindholm and center Rickard Rakell on new contracts. Lindholm and Rakell are coming off their rookie deals and figure to be seeking lucrative, multiyear extensions.
