Hellebuyck Requests Trade and Makar Signs MASSIVE Extension ft. David Pagnotta & Conor McGahey

On today’s episode of The Sheet, Jeff Marek is joined by David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period and Daily Faceoff Insider Edition to break down the biggest news from around the NHL, beginning with Connor Hellebuyck publicly requesting a trade from the Winnipeg Jets. They discuss potential Hellebuyck trade destinations, what Jets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff could be looking for in return, which teams have the assets to make a deal work, and where one of the NHL’s top goaltenders could ultimately land. Jeff and Dave also react to Cale Makar’s massive eight-year, $20.4 million AAV contract extension with the Colorado Avalanche and examine what the deal means for Quinn Hughes, the NHL defenseman market and future superstar contracts, including Connor McDavid. Plus, they check in on the NHL’s remaining restricted free agents, including Adam Fantilli, Cutter Gauthier and Simon Edvinsson, and discuss the Detroit Red Wings’ ongoing general manager search ahead of the 2026-27 season. Later, Colorado Avalanche radio voice Conor McGahey joins Jeff to break down the Makar extension from Colorado’s perspective, including the historic valuation, roster construction implications, Makar’s importance to the franchise and what locking up their superstar defenseman means for the Avalanche moving forward.
