What a number of people don't seem to understand is that the Flames have more to worry about than just how they can help Gaudreau generate more offence. At the end of the day he is but one of 23 guys on this roster. Adjustment, long road trip, the inability to get good matchups—there are potentially lots of reasons why he is not playing in more of the (relatively rare) 4-on-4 situations. It doesn't strike me as terrible odd or at all troublesome at this point in the season.
