According to Capgeek, the $4.1-million cap hit would be comparable to the current salaries of Anntti Niemi, Cory Schneider and Jonas Hiller.
His career save percentage of .906, however, puts him in a bit of a different scope of comparables.
Mason is 44th among 55 active goalies in career SV%. Everyone behind him is a backup, in Europe, or Ondrej Pavelec. http://t.co/LYxaDi9YfT
