if they felt that they had to get his rights to stop someone else getting them, and that he signs on as a #1 goalie...then a 4th rounder is probably cheap.

If however he doesn't sign, or would have signed anyways to be a #1 goalie as a UFA on July 1, then that is throwing away a 4th round pick.

I thought that it was alot for a UFA, but if they can get Halak signed without UFA impacts, then probably a good deal.
