Why would they be?? Gaudreau is the biggest long shot ever still where he was drafted, its a win already with how far he has gone and bonus from here on out. There was a reason Johnny went where he did, others thought he would go later, we took a very smart, calculated risk on the kid and it's looking to pay off so far. Hindsight is always 20/20 though and I am sure the people who doubted are basking in the current glory that Johnny Hockey is showing along with the very few who suggested he would get this far at 5'6 137 lbs when he was drafted.
I didn't necessarily doubt him I was just more or less shocked by his size at the time yet intrigued by his numbers. I loved the poster who was a player from the Saints, he knew all about Johnny and he obviously had a good idea about him. So glad we have Johnny, he still has a road ahead of him but it's looking brighter by the day.
