Seems a bit much for him IMO.... The Goose really had a down year last season.Comment

Not particularly down Stat wise but he just didn't impress me all that much.Comment

$2.3 million cap number isn't too bad.Comment

Re: Gaustad re-signed to 4 yr deal
It's nice to sign the Goose, however, Regier's comments in the story below seem to point to the fact that this organization is WAAAAAAYYYYY too in love with itself and their players. Not a very good sign, if you ask me. He does understand that the "very good core" of players he is talking about missed the playoffs and plain sucked last year...doesn't he?

Yep, I wouldn't be surprised if the Sabres stand pat. They think that they have a Stanley Cup winning team as is. The only signing will be a back-up goalie which they'll sign for a box of tampons from Costco...Don't look for any major signings.Comment

Not that many shined on the team last year. I think it's a decent signing though, As far as backup goaltender, the writing was on the wall with JT on the bench for all those games. Darcy knows, Ruff knows, Quinn knows that they need a solid back up to give Miller a rest. Raycroft?I've said it before and I'll say it again, I don't repeat myself.Comment

Re: Gaustad re-signed to 4 yr deal
Buffalo Sabres general manager Darcy Regier announced today the Sabres have re-signed forward Paul Gaustad to a four-year contract. The 26-year-old Gaustad was scheduled to become a restricted free agent on July 1.
“We felt it was very important to sign Paul to a multi-year deal at this stage of his career,” said Regier. “He has become an integral part of our team both on and off the ice in the past three years.”
Gaustad (6’4”, 229 lbs.) has scored 82 points (28+54) in 215 games during his three seasons in Buffalo. He posted career-highs in goals (10) and assists (26) last season, and was one of four Sabres to play in all 82 games.
Gaustad was selected by Buffalo in the 7th round (220th overall) of the 2000 Entry Draft.

Well so if we have a good core, we just need those couple impact guys to compliment the core.
You don't win championships based on just good foundations, but it sure is a good start. Now I think we have a good foundation, we just need to get the right big guns in there to make a difference and raise the play of the entire team.Comment

I would be OK without over paying for a big name FA. Sign players that fill holes.
Big names inevitably get overpaid.Originally posted by mysticsotoComment

Don't overpay but they need to sign a few outside free agents. I like the signing of Goose. It's a decent cap number and he brings some good things to the team.Comment
