And honestly it’s not an overpayment at all for a top 5 goalie wanting to be here.

Vancouver gave pretty much that contract to Myers but not Markstrom. Woof.

Even if it’s a slight overpayment it was worth it just to remove him from Vancouver and not let Edmonton get him. I’d make that deal over and over again.
