There is little room for doubt here. Gaudreau is pretty clearly the better player.

I'm not disagreeing with you. But my main point is everything you said has yet to be fully substantiated with NHL numbers. You illustrated it yourself with words such as 'likely' and 'almost'. Perhaps it's just a different interpretation on the usage of the word 'hindsight'. That's totally fine, thanks for clarifying St. Croix's development for me. Still I don't understand why that would warrant a relatively unfriendly first response from you.
