Preheat oven to 425°F. Place cut squash on a sheet pan, drizzle with the olive oil, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the sausage links to pan and turn to coat in oil. Roast in oven for 25 to 30 minutes until the sausages are browned and cooked through, tossing about halfway through.

Remove from oven and transfer the squash to a bowl. Add the milk and mash with a potato masher; season to taste with maple syrup, cayenne, and more salt and pepper if needed.

Meanwhile, heat the butter in a small saucepan until fragrant and fry the sage leaves with garlic until golden. To serve, place the sausages on top of the mashed squash and drizzle with the browned butter, sage, and garlic.
