If he's looking for that kind of money (and no one would pay that for a guy with one good year and even then no Vezina nom) they couldn't afford him anyway. They're going to have to cut salary somewhere, because they have to pay Hughes and Pettersson.
I just figure, you're a young team. You can either go with your 24 year old goalie of the future and have him develop along with your young players, or you can hitch your wagon to a guy who just turned 30 for a large sum of money and hope he doesn't decline just as your young guys are entering their primes.
