I do think gaudreau's game could translate to the NHL because one of his most impressive skills is how difficult he is to check. We saw it in the world juniors last year and in these highlights. He's so hard to contain and somehow slips through defenders... Reminds me of brad Marchand in some ways. His game isn't as physical obviously but they are both small players with great hands who don't get rocked by defencemen very often.
