Burke recently commented that Gaudreau is a good kid who wants to win and be a difference-maker, but he still let's his frustration get the better of him. Said he was surprised that after this long in the league, Gaudreau, in his words "hadn't learned to become a pro."
I think Gaudreau cares a lot and desperately wants to win. But he thinks he can do that by just trying harder at the things he's always done. He hasn't seemed to recognize that in order to become a winner, you often have to adapt and change what you've always done (diet, fitness, adapting to how teams play you, play away from the puck, mastering your emotions). It's concerning that in his sixth season in the league, Gaudreau hasn't starting figuring this stuff out.
