Also Devils fans are in disbelief that he's the return (think they are paying too much).

Devils fans must be bananas. Fans in general probably overvalue their own guys but the way his season has gone so far, some could argue it’s not enough for a signed goaltender playing his best. If I were on the opposite end I’d call it a fair tradeoff. Both have risks but for New Jersey the incremental benefit of adding a legit goaltender far outweighs yet another young guy who doesn’t have quite the same ceiling as their other young stars.
