Seems like a fair deal to me. His skills will start to decline (if they haven't already) over the three years of the deal and having him for 4 mil per season will make him a very affordable second pairing Dman. Heck, even if he slips to a third pairing guy his contract will still be fair.

Edited to add: Apparently a full no move for all three years of the deal. I don't love that for a player who will be in his late 30s but I guess to get him to take 2 million less per year than he was making on his last contract you have to give up something. I still like this deal.
