Gaudreau is having an off... 45 games or so and people are talking about trading the guy?? I'm happy with our centre depth -- Why trade for Barkov when you have a really good 1 - 2 in Backlund and Monahan who play similar games and Bennett who is 20 and will figure it out?? Players with Johnny's toolbox are somewhat a rare commodity still though they are growing... I wouldn't be so quick to trade him even in a deal that is fair value like Johnny and pick for Barkov because I think Johnny could turn into a game breaker more so than most. This is only his 3rd year guys and first true slump of his career... Give him a bit of a break maybe?
