Crazy....was just reading the bit about least excitement to start a season, and then this popped up on my phone!

I am not totally upset....

 

[snowkiddin]

Good news. Very good news.

 

[CorgisPer60]

I am gobsmacked. Out of the two of them, Hellebuyck is the one most worth his contract. I thought that the two of them were on their first ticket out of town next off season. This is phenomenal news and good for morale.

Good on Chevy for getting something done before the beginning of the season, now lets get onto the business of winning hockey games

 

[Siignal]

Are Calgary & Winnipeg competing for number of times placing positions 14-18 for the next 7 years?

Short term, I do like this though.

 

[SM]

What the actual shit lol

 

[Larabee]

Wooo hoooo !

 

[hockeyarena]

Holy F did not see that coming. 8.5 is an awesome number for both. People are going to be making $14 mil in a couple seasons.

 

[Buffdog]

Amazing news. People will bitch about the term on both but the AAVs are just about perfect

The "tear it down and suck for a decade to get a couple of hopefully decent picks" crowd is gonna hate these lol

 

[Atoyot]

Wait what the f***?

That's a happy what the f***, by the way.

 

[Jets4Life]

Wow.

This is such a win for the Jets. Helle is going to be a career Jet! Not bad at $8.5 million/year. I'm on the fence about the Scheifele signing. I guess it alleviates much pressure of Perfetti to step into the #1C role too quickly. If he can check his head, and return to the way he was from 2016-19, it will be a win. Only time will tell.

Friedman was just on radio saying the other day that Helle has been alot more receptive to re signing when he came back into town.

 

[SUX2BU]

Good

Hope they lead us far

 

[bustamente]

But, nobody wants to play here

 

[Potrzebie]

Oh my goodness this was unexpected today

I am pleased.

 

[Jets 31]

Great contracts for both, great job Chevy.

Oh my goodness this was unexpected today

I am pleased.

Well it is Thanksgiving.

 

[snowkiddin]

Wait? 8.5 x 7? Great numbers for both

 

[Moe Mantha]

I can't even right now. WTf***?!!? :O

 

[White Out 902]

great numbers. its also nice to be out at sea with at least a compass and a direction now.

 

[WolfgangPuck]

Holy shit.
I thought they would gone by next season
Chevy holds his cards tight to his chest
I’m liking Helle deal.
Lukewarm about Schief

 

[Atoyot]

Zero issues with the price. Both of them were underpaid to this point, now they might be a little overpaid by the end. Nice to have a couple career Jets.

 

[dcypher]

Chevy be eating that Turkey and not that Crow today.

Thanks Chevy, while we bitch and complain about how things are being perceived with him doing "nothing". These low key shadow drop deals makes me chuckle and grin every time he does some crazy shit like this.

GO JETS GO

 

[DannyGallivan]

What the actual shit lol

Those were my grandmother’s exact words when she heard.

 

[DRW204]

It is awesome to see Helle as likely a lifelong Jet. Probably the closest thing to a generational talent, and hall-of-famer we have and all with 1 franchise.
