Agreed. I got my head in the clouds with Gaudreau during the World Cup. I thought he was the best forward on that team North America and was throwing the term "generational" to others in my office. I made a bet he would outscore McDavid this year. Based off Gaudreau's college career he was poised to keep moving forward.
This season Gaudreau got hit more than he ever has before and didn't pull off as many moves as he did in years past. He is an elite player and has been hit with some adversity. I am excited to see how he responds.
