Never understood why Jets fans and now management like this player. Aside from his one good season he's been a below average backup, showed as much this past season. He's 27 years old and even with his one good season his NHL totals are below average numbers. Surely could be replaced with a better option for 1.5M no? Had the cap gone up 1.5M is pretty fair, but with the squeeze and amount of goalies available, i'm sure had they waited he'd still be on the market available for 1M in a month. Personally I would have looked at Casey DeSmith. He was available for free on waivers last season, prob could be had for a 7th and would be cheaper cap hit
