In that scenario if you can manage to flip him for a center that is better suited to 1C than Monahan, then you'd have to look at it.
It's a valuable position though, not sure where you find that trade that works both ways, even if Gaudreau has huge value. Most teams wouldn't want to put themselves down a peg in the middle, even if for a dynamic winger.
You could probably only swing it right now for a C that is still up and coming with a high ceiling. But Brad wouldn't do that in the midst of his window, especially after picking up Hall.
