COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) --- The Columbus Blue Jackets have signed goaltender Jet
Greaves to a three-year, $15 million contract through the 2028-29 season.
The deal was announced Thursday by general manager Don Waddell, who said "Jet
is a high-character, talented and athletic goaltender who has become an
important part of our hockey club. Our intent always was to get a deal done to
ensure he remains a Blue Jacket and we are thrilled that we were able to do so."
The 25-year-old Greaves finished 26-19-9 with a 2.60 goals-against average last
season to become the fifth goaltender in franchise history to win 25 games in a
season. He had two shutouts in 55 games. His .908 save percentage tied for
sixth among NHL goaltenders.
In 76 career appearances, Greaves has a 36-28-11 record with a .913 save
percentage and four shutouts. He made his NHL debut at the end of the 2022-23
season.
Greaves is a native of Cambridge, Ontario who made his international debut for
Canada at the 2026 IIHF World Championships in Switzerland. He finished 6-2 in
the tournament to tie for third in wins.
