Peter Budaj re-signs

Much maligned goaltender Peter Budaj has been re-signed to a one-year, $1.25 million dollar contract. Budaj, 26, will become an unrestricted free agent after the upcoming season.

It is hard to believe Budaj got a raise after the season he had but I don't think this contract is bad at all. It seems like a fair deal for both sides. If Budaj finally does have a great season he can back up the brinks truck next offseason. Conversely, if his inconsistency continues the Avalanche can move on with no cap consequences.
