Sabres fan here. Just wondering how hes been doing for you. I think its safe to say Sabre fans miss him on faceoffs this year.
you can have him for peanuts. he wins draws but his contract is not looking good right now
Yep, good at draws but not much else. However, he freaking loves to shoot the puck from a terrible angle. Same spot every game. He scored with that same shot last year in the playoffs though.
You guys freaking out over Gaustads salary are missing the big picture... having failed to sign Suter and Parise we are not going to be bumping into the cap any time soon, so paying a million or so morethan market in exchange for a very competent 4th line center won't actually keep us from signing someone else, which is the only circumstance in which overpayment is a problem. I mean, its not like its any of your money....

Yeah, it's not your money unless you sign the check.
yeah, still not your money..if no one supported this team long term like we do, there would be no money in the bank to sign that check.
not sure what your talking about saying im entitle... agree to disagree.yeah, still not your money..
If you don't buy that ticket, someone else will.
Do they need fan support? Of course. Does that entitle a fan? Of course not.
I think this is the better statement.Overpaid, sure. But he's pretty much done everything expected. He's the sole reason why we, as a team, are like 6th in FO% this season. He's strong in pretty much everything but offense.
I doubt people would be complaining so much if the other forwards were pulling their weight offensively.
I don't think his contract was inflated at all last night. He was huge at the dot in the second period. Sometimes you pay a guy to win face offs and be a man on the PK.
