From John Vogl of the Buffalo News:

The Sabres have taken one of their restricted free agents off the market, agreeing to terms with Paul Gaustad on a four-year deal worth $9.2 million. The big forward and fan favorite will earn $1.7 million this season and $2.5 in each of the three years after that.

Gaustad is a massive winger, whose hands aren’t that bad. His size and willingness to battle in the corners and drop the gloves are important to the Sabres’ cause. Not a bad signing by Darcy Regier.
