That is high. Looks like they're ready to play ball though

At first I was a litle shocked at the money but he is still coming into his own..He is a bigger player and he is locked up for a good buck...Next

IMO...Seems high for Gaustad.

 

It is a little high and it continues to be their M.O. They pay a little higher for the mid level guys, pay fairly well on the low level guys and lose out on the creme de la creme.

Considering the size of the deal, can Lindy maybe, just maybe, put a letter on his jersey next year? <_<

What do you want to jinx him?? They should ban all letters from Sabres jerseys

lol they actually sign someone and all anyone here does is complain.

 

FTR I am not complaining. Thought the deal was a little high, just like I think Hecht is a little high but both are offset by Roy's deal.

Can they announce signings at 12:01 TW?

Gaustad is one of my favorite Sabres, but it does seem high. I'm not mad at it, just somewhat surprised. That being said, I am pleased to announce that through this signing, the relevance of my Reebok Edge Sabres jersey was extended for 4 years :thumbsup:

Or go the other way and give everyone a letter. We wouldn't want anyone's feelings hurt...

Who is complaining? I see everyone discussing the deal, but I don't see anyone blasting management... :blink:

no complaints from me... I love it! Hopefully a few more will follow...

 

 

with the price of everyone going up, why are people surprised by the numbers?

Personally, I think it's great news. It's a little high as I figured he would get $1.5-$1.7 million during every year of his deal, but whatever. Frankly, the $2.5 million going to Gaustad is better than the $3.33 million going to Max in my opinion. And, as the cap has increased, the value of a player like Goose probably is about right. I still think it's a bit high, but I have no problem with it as Goose is a Sabre for 4 more years. And, who knows, he could maybe net 20 next year and it'd be undervalued.

I honestly can't figure out why people put so much stock in penalty minutes. Last I checked Penalties hurt your team.

Yeah you're right. A roster of nothing but soft finesse players is the way to go.
