Helle has been pretty public about making the Stanley Cup his main priority right now. I think the whole Vasy money is blown out of proportion by his agent and all these "insiders".
Never mind having a superstar goalie for a minute. I think people need to start looking at SC winning goalie sv% and stats, then consider who is more likely to replicate those stats. Helle should be atop those considerations, especially considering how stellar his stats are with WPG defence. Also, ppl seem to disregard Tampa's cup runs with this recent narrative - do you want to win one cup? Or go back to back to back? U need superstar goalies to do that.
I think Helle's style in net, as evidenced by the number of games he plays a year, lends itself to a pretty long career. He's big and relies on strong positioning rather than dynamic movement that tends to lead to injuries.
