Yeah, great gamble for the team and the player. If he ends up being a flash in the pan, it's a relatively short contract with a manageable cap hit. For the player, it's life changing money and a short enough deal that if he does manage keep it going, he can capitalize on his next deal.
Apparently the contract also came with a charitable contribution from the Hurricanes to the local autism society (Bussi's brother is autistic and his goalie mask is a tribute to him).
