To be totally clear, he just had a career season, clearly the best of his career, and it still wasn't a top 3 performance in the league. I'm not saying he wasn't excellent this year, because he was. I'm not saying he isn't a good goalie, because he is. But let's not go nuts. The reason there is hesitancy to a long term deal at this number, and that's because this isn't someone who is at the top of the league at his position every year and there is risk that this is too much for too long, particularly given his age.

He literally was a nominee for the Vezina.
