Flames may lock up Kipper soon.

Talks are really starting to heat up between the Calgary Flames and Superstar goaltender Miikka Kiprusoff.

Kiprusoff, who won the Vezina trophy just 3 years ago, and finishing as a finalist just last year, will make 3.6 million in his final year of his current contract.

Currently, the 2 other top-notch goalies (Luongo and Brodeur) are making 6.75 and 5.2 million each.


My opinions are that the flames should lock him up to a 4 year $22 million contract, which would average 5.5 million per year. He definitely deserves it, after his amazing performance last year!
