If happy with a 4 year extension around 5 million/per.

His stats might be able to garner him a better contract come free agency though.

Goalies are an unpredictable bunch. Add that uncertainty to a goalie coming from one of the most defensive coaches in the NHL, and I think it's a gamble to extend him before seeing what he can do. I'd rather pay a guy what he's worth than sign him now and risk overpaying for past performance.
After last season, is .918 looks like Hasek. Take it and run.

Yeah, I'll keep beating the drum that we're likely looking at $6-7 mil if we're trying to lock him up as he heads into free agency. I guess he could fall on his face in Calgary, but the more likely scenario is he's pretty much already a $6-7 mil goalie who just hasn't had this full season as a clear cut starter to prove it, due to the two number ones in St. Louis.

He'll be another highly sought after starter on Ben Bishop's level after this season, most likely.
