This is not a bad deal. He is not a Norris trophy guy but I believe he is a legitimate #1. I love Brodie but at this point Johnson IMO is better and this deal is in his UFA years. Colorado's problem is depth on D but at $6 million he should not give them cap problems.
Comparing contracts can be misleading. He is great value compared to Wideman or Phaneuf, horrible value compared to Keith.
