Okay sure, you're adding some 1st round swap idea, but the Penguins aren't in a huge position to do that considering they don't know the fate of their 1st round picks this season or next due to the Kessel trade.
Murray is equal to a guy like Gilles IMO, further ahead? Yeah probably, but only due to Jon being hurt this year. Anything involving the Flames first is a massive overpayment.

Agreed.
Until a goalie has proven he can start in the NHL for an extended period of time, he's not worth paying a huge price for.
The history of the NHL is littered with goalies who put up huge numbers as an AHL player or even a back-up, but who couldn't cut it as a #1.
