I think Johnny can BE Patty Kane 2.0
It's just a confidence/experience thing at this point. The one notable difference Kane has on him when looking at the two. I've noticed for the most part Gaudreau's still been making a lot of perimeter plays and shots. But when he feels confident enough to start cutting to the middle of the ice on more of his offensive zone plays rather than ripping them the outside, he'll start tearing up the scoresheet. He's got equally as many assists as Kane so far, just needs to start putting the goals in and that'll be the key.
