For those who fear Berra might become great just remember the fact they have a young very good goalie ahead of him in Varlamov. They paid a pretty penny to Varlamov who had shown more and had greater potential.
Also, Blues scouts who also know a bit or two about prospects and goaltending did not want to bring Berra over (I'm taking this from the fact Berra has in the past said he wanted to come over but the Blues weren't interested in signing him). What does that say? they didn't think he was very good. IMHO he's not a good goalie and will need lots of AHL time to even become a backup.
