If Shesterkin was to hit UFA, how much would you offer him ?

I ditch Marner and offer him 12+ million dollars.

 

[CanadienShark]

No more than $11m. Even that gives me pause, because I think adequate goaltending can be cheaper.

11, 11.5

If there's a rumour, or confirmed about the new TV deal and seems like the cap will go up a decent amount the next few years, then upwards of 13 per

I definitely wouldn't go over 12.

As a Habs fan I voted under 10, but I'd consider 10 to 12.

I don't like or trust him as much as Carey Price. I had no problem with Price's contract, and would have no problem paying higher for Price today.

10-12M

Anything above that just feels excessive for a goaltender

 

[WarriorofTime]

The goaltender market is about to be reset in a big way. Gone are the days of just throw any big guy, put some humungous pads on him and hope for the best. You either need to go all out for an elite defense or pay up for an elite goaltender. Every Goaltender up for a contract should be looking at Florida winning the Cup with the highest AAV goaltender in the League who isn't even necessarily the best goaltender in the League and tell the GMs to eff off with "no we can't pay goaltenders" when players like Nylander, Marner and Tavares all get $11 million AAV.

 

[Evergreen]

I would honestly just pass on signing a goalie for anything over $10M.

 

[Albatros]

Ten million for a year and then one mil off for every extra year of term.
