The current team can definitely learn from this past season but I don't think Gaudreau is hitting anyone anytime soon.
To me, being tougher to play against is pressuring through a relentless forecheck and back check, and never quitting on the play. This is what the Flames did wrong in the playoffs, and it is not an irredeemable flaw.
