A Different Breed?

"While it’s rare for a team that already has a No. 1 goalie under contract to make such a bold offer to another clear-cut No. 1 goalie on the free-agent market, it’s also rare for the free agent to sign knowing playing time was not part of the guarantee."Huet is apparently a different breed." - Dan Rosen, NHL.com
Not all that different, really - the money is still part of the guarantee, oui?

@tj: Neither Campbell nor Bowman had signed with Chicago yet when Huet did. It's the money.
I normally am fully supportive of free agents taking the best offer they can get. The problem here was with all of Huet's talk ahead of time, which turned out to mean nothing.
It's the money.
