No I am saying that if Gaudreau has a chance to break into the NHL on LA or with the Flames he will take the Kings 10 times out of 10.
The Flames HAVE to get much bigger if they want to be successful as a team and add someone like Gaudreau.
Patrick Kane would be no where as good on the Flames as he is in Chicago. Cammalleri would be successful in Chicago as a Kane replacement.
I do not think that Montreal will be as successful with Briere added to their current line-up. I expect that Gionta will play a much smaller role. He is in the last year of his big Contract and similarly to Cammalleri and will not get as much of a return as the Flames and Canadien's fans expect.
