There's a big difference. Gaudreau is hard to hit cleanly with a legal check. But it's impossible to guard against someone stepping outside the rules like Thompson in that clip, who simultaneously boarded and cross checked him from behind.
If we go back over a year, Corrado absolutely clobbered Johnny with a vicious cheap-shot elbow in Penticton.
Not really fair to use blatant cheap shots as examples of how he can be hit.

He was talking about the biggest hit Gaudreau took. This one has to be one of the most grueling hits. Legal or not.
