Can't complain.

I really don't think Halak is going to bounce back that well especially with the top pair having OEL(who is very ungood), but it's only for a year and he shouldn't be terrible either. Eh, it's alright.

Nice structure, low cap hit but higher AAV to reel him in

Halak will cost 1/3 of what Holtby did.

Good veteran back up goalie. I would've liked him a bit cheaper, but he'll be better than Holtby in VAN.
His cap his will end up being $2,750,000 at minimum.
He has a $1,250,000 bonus for 10 games played.
And then a $250,000 bonus for 0.905+ SV%.
He'll likely play 10 games. I don't see Demko playing 73.
And if the bonus puts them over the cap it will be on their cap next year.
So they might end paying $3,000,000 in Holtby + Halak penalties next year.
