Maybe... but how many are available? Do you know why they aren't available? Because they are crucial and incredibly hard to come by. Top wingers get traded more often (and seem to be in more rumours) than top centres.

And don't go saying we could just replace Monahan with Bennett. We don't even know if Bennett is any good yet.

I still can't figure out if you're just ridiculously overrating Gaudreau or criminally understating Monahan and the centre position in general. Honestly, it might be both, and that's a lot of things to be way off about.
I'm pretty sure everyone ignored everything after Gaudreau was said to be comparable to Ovechkin, Malkin, Iginla, and Fleury. I suggest you do the same...
