If this Gaudreau-Bennett experiment continues I think it would be beyond impressive if Gaudreau ended up hitting 70 points this season to be honest. Bennett is going to be a fantastic hockey player and in my opinion will be our #1C as soon as next training camp potentially, however he's still learning the game. Also whoever we throw on right wing will not be able to produce offensively like Hudler did last season.
I think breaking up that top line is best for the club to generate more than one line of offence but in terms of Gaudreau's final #s this season it might not be.
If they continue to roll with Gaudreau-Bennett I full on expect 50+ points out of Bennett this season.
