Are people seriously trying to compare Berra to Kipper? They were both 27 year old European goalies traded for a 2nd round pick. That is all.
Kipper started in the much tougher Finnish league then had two good seasons in the AHL. He followed that up by getting 14 regular season wins and a playoff win with the Sharks. I know Berra has 9 wins (1 in regulation) and Kipper had a bad 02-03 season but the Flames got a more valuable and proven goaltender for their 2nd round pick than the Avs got for theirs.
