Well, it depends on expectations and the type of contract, doesn't it? Signing a Euro to a minor league contract and having them play minor league hockey isn't awful. If one breaks out like Rittich, then it's pretty much a home run.
If you sign someone like Cervenka to play in the NHL on an NHL contract and he doesn't pan out, that's a fail.
