Gaudreau for Gostisbehere & Simmonds
28 year old RW that plays a hard game, 30 goal scorer under contract for 3 years at 3.9 & a RFA dman to round out the top 4
Philly will overpay for a home town boy who is a top 10 scoring winger
I have a feeling we lose him now or in 6 years for less at the deadline in his UFA season for a lot less - management won't be able to trade him in year 3 or 4 when they really should in order to maximize his value. You can get away with that in Columbus or Boston but not a Canadian hockey market.
