I wonder if Granlund and Tarasenko had to put up as many slashes and abuse as Gaudreau had to put up with. People give him slack for one event of diving, but what do you expect from a guy who doesn't slash back or bother getting involved in scrums? His defense is either do nothing, rely on the referee's (which hasn't helped), fight back (he's not a fighter), or persuading the referees by a little embellishment.
If you ask me, Gaudreau wouldn't have to dive at times if referee's did their ####ing job.
