    Fleury re-signs with Pittsburgh

    7 years, 35 mil....

    That has to be a good sign in terms of the Sabres re-signing Miller.

    Agreed. Fleury is as good as Miller IMO

      That's a great deal for a goalie who went to the finals

        I agree! Unfortunately I think Miller will want more.

          I get the feeling that some players are taking much less to stay in Pittsburgh because of the core they have built. It seems like they are doing things the right way for the most part.

            i think Fluery is every bit as good, maybe even better than Miller. Fluery played awesome in the playoffs and as did Miller when we were there.

              Fleury played out of his mind in the playoffs. Before the playoffs and anytime in the past I would have gladly said Fleury is overrated and not that good. He pretty much stepped up and shut me up once the playoffs hit.

                Miller will still get more than Lundquist.

                  Fleury and Miller are both average middle of the pack NHL goaltenders...Fleury inflated his value because of his playoff performance. But still took a hometown discount because like Lechter said, as long as Pittsburgh keeps it's core...Crosby, Malkin, Orpik...the rest can be pretty much interchangeable and they'll still be competitive.

                  If that makes sense.

                    The playoffs is where a goalie's true value is.

                    I agree that seeing a team aggressively lock up its best players probably motivated him to take a discount.

                      Johan Hedberg played great in the playoffs for Pittsburgh too...remember the last year Hasek was in a Sabre uniform?

                      That guy in Anaheim was awesome in the playoffs and is nowhere near that consistently. Forgot his name.

                      The list goes on and on, just because you come up big for 16 games doesn't make a career or indication you can play at that level consistently.

                        Giguere? He's one of the best goalies in the league.

                          No, I think he is referring to the guy who now plays in Phoenix.
