Girgensons is a bargain at 2.2 -2.9 million IMO
- Boss34

Tage's deal this year is what a bargain is by definition

Gus is a boat anchor with minimal return on a 2.2 mil investment


Asplund is a better contract than your boy Bust28

Those are the numbers I get on my OF account.

Let's break this down a bit.

You have 20 players making a cap of 83 million this nhl season.
Just over 4 million on average, per player.

If you could get 20 point performance and effort for 55% % of the teams average per player. It's all profit 🍻

Sabres are probably paying 60/65 million to 20ish players.
3 million on average per player.

You sound like communist.

Let's break it down another way. Minimum salary is 750k. Paying Grigs any more is charity from ownership looking to save money anywhere they can. No reason to pay more for nostalgia. They can buy a bobblehead and pay less for a better player.

There a game on ESPN right now. Weird

We still on strong leadership and being overpaid by a mill

Jesus I thought Boss was in his 30's!!

He's made a lot of money as a career 4th liner. Owes the team a lot.

Hear me out:

Captain Mark Pysyk. Dual threat RW and RD. Can he play goalie? Probably. Almost certainly.

Yes.

Really, next you're gonna say, nhl 10 goal scorers grow on trees?

600 nhl games, I would think girgs has been bringing something worth his value aside from the movember mustache.

Starts every game. Plays pk. Decent speed and effort.
Always straggled by okposo and the center of the month.

Bobbleheads tend to be small, lucky to make a second save.

I post young.

No one on the Sabres PK should be adding that as a resume bullet.

I'm no Girgensons apologist but Matt Ellis is more akin to John Hayden.

And good god I just looked and he played here for 7 years

If the majority of Girgs value is leadership, then Ellis a fair comp. Irreplaceable leadership vibes there.

Well, yeah, vibes per 60 are nearly at Jacob Bryson levels

I seem to remember Kaiser having a nickname for him. Something from Mel Brooks, perhaps?

Just when you think they have things figured out and are ready to finally move on from 10m LOG, they'll lock up Girgs, Jost, Greenway for 8m with term.

It's OK; they still aren't a cap team because they have to save money for the (insert player here) extension
