I'd be ok with it. Goalies drafted in the first round usually end up being studs, except Fleury. Even DP was awesome except all his injuries.
Price, Luongo, Brodeur, Schneider....pretty good company.
That being said, I could see the Jets wanting another first rd pick to get him... But I could also see them not worrying about it.
Either way I'd be cool with it. You can get an all star goalie with a later pick anyways.

There has been some success recently, but I wouldn't say 1st round goalies or even the top goalie in the draft is often a stud.
