I guess Zach Aston-Reese is also an elite centre because he, too, put up huge numbers at Northeastern. ZAR is great defensively, sure, but he, like Gaudette, projects as a good middle-six centre.
Bennett had a nightmare year, it happens, but I don't see a ton that separates him from Gaudette. I think they both will peak as 40- or 50-point centres in their mid-late 20s. Do the Canucks have anyone who put up a goal-per-game in his D+1 year of junior after coming off shoulder surgery?
