Players that do what Gaudreau does offensively make $10 million + in UFA now, his contract is no slouch either, and like I said, while Couturier is the more well rounded player he doesn't have anywhere near the offensive upside of Johnny.
I think there value is pretty close, going to have to agree to disagree I guess.
