Jets sign Connor Hellebuyck to six-year contract - Winnipeg
25-year-old was a finalist for the 2017-18 Vezina Trophy as the NHL's best goaltender
www.nhl.comDirect answer: Connor Hellebuyck’s latest publicly reported contract is his 7-year extension signed with the Winnipeg Jets in October 2023, worth $59.5 million with an AAV of $8.5 million, running through the 2030-31 season. There have been no official reports since then of a new deal or extension beyond that term.[1][2]
Context and recent developments:
- The 2023 extension solidified Hellebuyck as one of the Jets’ long-term core players, tying him to Winnipeg through the prime years of his career.[2]
- Prior to the 2023 extension, Hellebuyck had been in the conversation around potential moves or longer-term deals, but the 2023 signing effectively reset his status with the Jets for the remainder of the decade.[5][7]
- There has been ongoing debate in hockey media about whether Hellebuyck would pursue a long-term deal elsewhere or remain in Winnipeg; however, as of the latest reporting, no new contract with a different term has been publicly announced.[6][7]
