Today in our season player grades series we take a look at forward and face off specialist Paul Gaustad. The fourth-line center did not have the greatest of seasons in the points category but nevertheless he had a pretty decent year when it comes to his defensive and special teams play.
The 33-year-old will be entering the final year of his contract this upcoming season where he will be making $3 million. More than fellow Predators Ryan Ellis and Mattias Ekholm to name a couple. It will be interesting to see what the organization will do with the veteran forward next summer, but that is set to be discussed on a later date.
