Jets listening to offers for Connor Hellebuyck, says GM
from Sportsnet,
Asked whether the star goalie has requested a trade on Friday, Jets general manager Kevin Cheveldayoff did not offer a definitive answer — but did say he is fielding trade offers.
"At the end of the day, we both chose to sign a seven-year extension. There's risk on both sides," Cheveldayoff said. "As an organization, it's incumbent on you to listen, and that's what we've done to this point. ... What I've been hearing hasn't made me act. The best answer is I'm still listening."
Hellebuyck has five more seasons left on his deal, worth $8.5 million annually.
The 2025 Hart and Vezina Trophy winner is coming off a down season with the Jets, posting a 2.86 goals-against average and .895 save percentage, but he starred for Team USA in a golden effort at the Milano-Cortina Olympics.
