Interesting to rush to extend a 35 year old goalie that is 2-2 to start the year with a .830 save % and 5.13 GAA. Meanwhile Allen is 5-1 with a .906 and 2.39 GAA, so its clearly not the team.

Combined they are still not paying much ok goaltending
This is a team that struggled to get goaltending
Not surprised they want to keep that solid

Crazy that they insisted on salary retention, just to end up paying him more after playing worse. Capflation is real.

At least the Flames won't be on the hook for part of it.

I didn't realize that Allen is also 35 years old. Markstrom turns 36 in January.

Soft in the head.

Good goalie. Can win a series. But if they get to him... he's done.

A "fair" price all things considered.

Wolf makes $1.5M more. That’s value.

Markstrom shall never be forgiven for that BoA Playoff Series in my eyes.

Lol WTF?

Devils are not the best at identifying goalie talent. No good Wedgewood looks pretty good right now.

I really like to trash Trelivng whenever I can but it sure does look like a lot of his free agent moves in the 20’s have worked out quite well for the Flames. Tanev, Markstrom, Coleman, and Kadri all were strong signings that will or have brought back the flames assets in trade.

If a team in the east gets in his head in a series, he could easily offset all the attacking talent in that team.

Did they wait till most eyes would be on the WS game to try and slip this one in undetected?
