Y'know, I think enough years have passed that we can stop bringing this up. It's been like two decades.
Hayes is a decent player in the right age range who plays the right position. Potential chemistry with Gaudreau is irrelevant. If there is any, it's a bonus. It's not the primary reason for acquiring Hayes. You might have a point if he was straight out of college, but he isn't. He can play in the NHL.
If Hnat scored 17 in his rookie season sans Iggy, then no one would ever bring him up. Because he'd be a good player. Which he wasn't. Which Hayes is.
