If he puts up anything less than 1 PPG, things aren't looking too spectacular. I mean, Gaudreau put up 44 PTS in 44 GP in his first year in college compared to 18 PTS in 34 GP for Jankowski, and he was just one month older than Jankowski was in his first year at Providence.
EDIT: Then again, Blake Wheeler didn't have 1 PPG in any of his three college years, and he's turned into a solid player.
And of course, Gaudreau himself improved in his sophomore year with 51 PTS in 35 games. That's an NHL 82 game equivalency of 49 points, by the way (for whatever it's worth).
