Not to mention his well publicized lack of commitment off-ice.

Our 3rd line has been our best line by far, and Gaudreau has been a blackhole in almost every single game. Plus he blew his defensive coverage in the last minute of Game 2 for the winner. Just the complete opposite of a playoff performer.

He's a $6.75M PP specialist who is looking for a raise. But don't worry, he's "just unlucky".
Agreed.

Wish Johnny the best, but he seems checked out. I think he really wants to be playing elsewhere.

Time to try and get Hall (if available) and move Gaudreau for assets. It's time for a core change.
