Jets reward Hellebuyck with $37-million deal

The Winnipeg Jets are banking on Connor Hellebuyck's ability to turn one superb season into a recurring theme.

The Jets top goalie, a restricted free agent this summer, was rewarded for an all-star 2017-18 NHL season with a new six-year, $37-million contract.

Hellebuyck got his number, literally. The product of Commerce, Mich., wears jersey No. 37 for the Central Division team.

The 25-year-old netminder's contract carries an average annual value of $6.167 million.
