I really don't get why 4 mil is such a scary number to pay Bernier next year. ####, Flames are paying each goaltender that amount and it's unlikely Bernier will be any worse. They can get a decent backup for 900k prob, maybe even Ortio. With top goalies around 6-7 mil per and the average salary as high as it is, it just seems weird that some are so scared of 4 for Bernier next year. Seems like a low risk high reward play. Perfect bridge until Gillies is ready.
