They look great when they work, but most of the time they don't, become predictable, and kill plays and the spirit of your team.
I really don't know this would be any concern. It's not like this is a signature move or anything from Gaudreau, nor does he show a tendency to make this play at inopportune times—which is when becoming predictable is a real problem. This was a perfectly timed and perfectly placed toe-drag that would have resulted in a goal, had Wingels not been in the way of the shot. Just another in a massive repertoire of mind-blowing plays that Gaudreau continues to draw from.
