Giguere is good but as others have noted he has benefited from a good defense. In addition he has also been some what inconsistent at times.

When? People say that, but they never prove that...

[/ QUOTE ]

he has been inconsistent, last year playoffs is one example...

Giguere 05-06, 3-3, 3.40 GAA .864 SV%

Then Bryzgalov in the same playoffs was..
Bryzgalov 05-06, 6-4, 1.46 GAA .944 SV%

again, don't get me wrong, I think Giguere is a good goalie
but I question if he should get paid like a top 10/15 goalie.

Giguere finished the season playing through a groin injury. Bryzgalov gave him some chance to rest when it was obvious it was affecting his play. Next.

His career playoff stats are sick. 31-13, 1.96 GAA, .929 SV%. There are tons of teams that could use that in the playoffs.

Also, not top 10-15 money? There aren't 10-15 better goalies right now. Regular season, and more importantly playoffs, he's easily in the top 10.
