Was Dan Girardi Overpayed?

Dan Girardi was signed earlier this summer to a four year deal with a cap hit of $3.325M a year.  The contract has an overall value of $13.3M.  He will be payed $3.1M the first year and $3.4M a year over the next three.

Most Rangers fans hated Girardi after he did not go in and defend Marion Gaborik while he was fighting Daniel Carcillo. They never wanted to see him wear the Rangers sweater again.  It seems those feelings have gone away and most Rangers fans were happy to see Girardi re-up with the Rangers.  Not many were really sure about this deal right away as a market value was not really set on Girardi and thus no one was sure if this was a fair deal or not.  Well a signing this week may dictate whether or not Glen Sather over payed for the Rangers blueliner.
