A bit pricey to start with but if he progresses like I think he will that is nice value and we have one of the youngest goalies in the NHL tied up until he's close to 30!
Glad to see him re-signed, but it's too much money for what he's done, IMO. I get paying for potential, but still think Jets overpaid here.
I agree, but I think Pavs can do it. If we can build a solid wall of capable defenders in front of him, he'll seem as impregnable as the teen daughter of a man with a bad temper, who owns many guns.
I think that buys some years of UFA. I assume its loaded in the end as was Ladd's deal. It's a bit high on average but I'd be more concerned if it was shorter term. I think its fair.
Wow did Pavs get lucky. He has potential but has proven nothing. He signed for 2.1 Million more than Quick and Howard's 2nd contract?
It's a lot to pay this guy.. I just really really hope he continues to work his ass off to get better. He seems like a great guy and should be good in the community.

I think that the fact that there were not many goalies out there to replace him, and we don't have an NHL ready guy in the AHL nor a quality signed backup worked in Pavelec's favour. It's a very nice deal I think, the 5 years is a bit risky but it could work out well, especially with an improved D in front of him.

I agree out of the blocks it looks rich......we lose if he stays flat or shows little progression.....it he grows this could look really nice in 5 years? No doubt we are paying for some upside.

At least we know who our Goalie is!
A bit unfair here aren't we? Pavelec has been pretty inconsistent thus far in his career, but I don't think there's that many people who'll deny that he's a legitimate starting goaltender at the moment with the potential to be a lot more then that.
GREAT!
