He's singling out Gaudreau as the reason the Flames lost. Granted it's fair to criticize him for not producing 5 on 5 because he wasn't as good as the Flames needed him to be but what about Giordano, Monahan and Lindholm? If even two of them step up maybe we are talking about the Flames in a 2nd round game thread. Tkachuk hasn't produced offensively at all in the playoffs. There's plenty of blame to go around and to pile on one player publicly on the radio, print, tweets, etc is pretty lame IMO. It's almost like it's personal or something.
