I guess Gaudreau had his career season 2 years ago then? same with Monahan?

Because that's the friggin' definition of "career season". It's the best season of their career to date. Yes, it means more for a guy who's been in the league for a while, but it's a literal fact that those players had career years last year, and expecting them to improve on it might be a little optimistic. If you get them to MATCH their career years, then you should be happy.
So yes, I'll grant you that Gaudreau and Monahan had their career years 2 seasons ago. It will stand as such until they can prove they can do it again, or improve upon it. You should probably take the same position.
