1. 3.2 Mil is not a lot of money if he brings what he's brought so far in his career
2. I miss Lombardi, happy to have Raymond
3. He can play both wings. Much stronger on LW, but he can be utilized on both
4. All of the LWs everyone's upset about him taking time from aren't NHL proven prospects yet. Throwing Gaudreau into a 1st line situation is very Oily. Make him earn it, and give ourselves proven wingers to play the position until he earns it.

Great fit.
