The core of this team belongs to Jay. The depth at forward is thanks to Jay. The Gaudreau pick is thanks to Jay (let's face it: Button has made a lot of recommendations which have been ignored over the years).
Credit where credit is due.

Totally agree! Jay was the GM and had the final call on every pick during his tenure. If his call was to trust his scouts and act on their recommendations, that's a credit to him, not a black mark as some like to claim.
