He's an average starting goalie getting paid average starting rate for a 4 year deal. I think having him locked down for only 4 years is a win for Pittsburgh, who are they going to upgrade with in the next couple years?
Seems like a reasonable deal by Pittsburgh.
He's not a goalie that wins you the cup, but when you have Crosby and Malkin on your team you really just need an average goalie to have a shot, and he's an average goalie.
