I liked this approach that Conroy described as well. Feaster let his wishes be known that they want players to do what they really thought were best for them and that the Flames would support them.

In Gaudreau's particular case, a lower number of games (NCAA vs OHL) may just be what the doctor order such that he can spend more time in the gym and physically mature.
