The Winnipeg Jet Hockey Club announced today they have agreed to terms with both forward Mark Scheifele and goaltender Connor Hellebuyck on identical seven-year contract extensions with an average annual value of $8,500,000. Both of their seven-year contract extensions will begin in the 2024-25 season.

REAL?
I didn’t expect this at all. š®
Thatās really good value for Helle
55 though? Idk why either side would want that, especially after this last year
While the last ~2 years of those contracts might be rough, that seems a fair price to pay for our competitive window now extending for another 4-5 years. Hyped!
Edit: I will say, after they gave the C to Lowry, I kinda expected Scheif to leave as he was being built up as the successor to Wheels, but his play and attitude over the past 3 seasons kinda derailed that. Happy heās stuck around regardless
Let’s Goooo!
Friedman said today he didnāt think either were close to signing LMFAO
Chevy stays silent on the grind
#WHAT THE FUCK?! LETS FUCKIN GO BOYS!
This was unexpected for most, but this offseason seemed like they were going to be the 2 to stay long term.

OMFG ITVHAPPENED WHAT DO I DO?
Where the fuck did this come from?? šÆ
Holy shit was I not expecting this. Pleasantly surprised.
And thereās your 2 newest members of the Jets HOF.
Kevin Cheveldayoff masterclass
I am shocked.
I legit thought that was a troll post until I saw the account that posted it
Woah š¤Æ They both get Blake Wheeler money.
Lets fucking go!!! WE got a youth movement supporting our stars. Competitive window stays open for a few more yers.
NO WAY BOSS
This is probably the most surprised I have been in the 2.0 era.
That 55 contract may not age the best…but its far from the worst contract. Regardless, I’m glad we aren’t losing these guys for nothing.
Fuck the haters. I’m in.
WHAT THE FUCK???? LETS GO????
Awesome news! 1Cs are impossible to sign on the open market.
Am shocked
Rebuild? Fuck your rebuild!
Is this actually happening?????
Chevy from WAY out of left field.
HOLY SHIT
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let’s goooooo. Knew it was possible.
Letās fucking GOOOOOO
Frick ya!
Didnāt expect to see this today or anytime in the near future haha but happy to see it wow. Definitely thought they were both gonna test the market in the off-season before potentially signing extensions but glad Iām wrong on that
Helle contract details [https://twitter.com/capfriendly/status/1711466743414096214?s=46&t=S_LiHKGoXi91Lmgu-MxoZA](https://twitter.com/capfriendly/status/1711466743414096214?s=46&t=S_LiHKGoXi91Lmgu-MxoZA)
Only 3rd major player in 2.0 history to receive a signing bonus after 33&26
Chevy from the top fucking rope
Well, that’s a relief. I didn’t think I was going to enjoy the next four years or so of my life. This might help.
I would like to retract some of my previous statements of how we’re definitely losing Scheifele and Hellebuyck at the deadline for nothing
Happy Thanksgiving! Holy hell I didn’t expect to keep both of them!
Time to put up a statue of Chevy!
I’m just out here making hot turkey sandwiches while Chevy is doin the real cookin’
Typical Chevy move. No one had a clue.
All the so called experts can shove it. All I heard all summer was that neither was re-signing in Winnipeg.
