If it's "too early to tell if Bennett will be better than Iginla", maybe we should tone down the Gaudreau hype a touch?
I'm a huge, huge Fleury fan. He's my favourite Flame when I first started watching the team. I just think Gaudreau has the talent and upside to be a top 5 scorer in the NHL. I don't believe Fleury ever was. So yes, for me Little Johnny looks like he'll be better than Fleury. It's no slight to Fleury, it's more of a huge compliment for Little Johnny.
