I know I'm somewhat bias, but I've been watching and following as much as some of you. I just dont know what else Gaudreau has to do to be in the starting lineup. What is the weak phase of his game, yes, he's not gonna throw his body around, but his defensive game is well underrated. Always making smart plays, great at back checking plus a great defensive is a quick counter attack.
He controls the game when he's on the ice, knows when to turn it up ice and when to keep control and play the puck back. It blows my mind that there are still fans out there that are willing to keep someone that will be out of the flames organization within a year or two, over a kid that could be a cornerstone for years to come.
