My ask

Holtz isn't available

I don’t see NJ signing Hellebuyck to that contract. Also, NJ can’t trade the 2024 1st round pick because it’s still involved with the Meier trade.

We can trade it, it just has to be conditional

I think you'll end up being disappointed in the return you get for helle if he does end up getting moved. NJ isn't remotely interested in paying that high of price for a goalie (for the trade and the extension). There are more affordable options in the goaltending market. They might even choose to run it back with Vitek and Schmid/cheap backup and upgrade elsewhere. Time is not on the jets' side. They probably need to get a helle deal done before the season starts because vezina-calibre goalies rarely get traded during the season. Winnipeg is definitely stuck between a rock and a hard place with this one. I hope you guys manage to trade helle and get a good return for him because it sucks losing the face of the franchise for a bad return but the devils won't be interested in paying anywhere near that. I would love helle on the devils though.

Holtz is 1000% available in the right move but devils won't give up this much for Helle
