BREAKING: Winnipeg Jets Shock NHL Fans With Two Big Contract Extensions
The Winnipeg Jets just announced two contract extensions with massive stars that have left fans shocked.
Jets Stun NHL Fans WIth Big Extensions
The Winnipeg Jets recently announced that they have signed stars Mark Scheifele and Connor Hellebuyck to 7-year extensions.
HERE TO STAY
Mark Scheifele and Connor Hellebuyck have signed identical seven-year contract extensions with an average annual value of $8,500,000.
Many fans and media around the league had expected the Jets to take a wait-and-see approach with extensions.
However, the team is doing the exact opposite committing fully to this group. The Jets will now have a 2 to 3 year window to compete before their core group starts to leave their prime.
If the Jets end up with a Stanley Cup with Scheifele and Hellebuyck as main contributors the organization will look like geniuses. If they fail to win these contracts could look pretty ugly before they are completed.
