If we make a hockey trade with Gaudreau the return will likely be disappointing. Whatever you can get now is going to be better than what you get as time goes on though. Gaudreau with one year left on his deal isn't going to bring back something significant. Gaudreau as a rental is even worse. Fans need to get it out of their heads that the return has to be equal or better because something decent now for us to build around is better than nothing in a couple years. Meaning a lesser player on a better contract signed for 5 years is likely more valuable than Gaudreau for 2 more years or Gaudreau signed for 8+ million.
