In terms of the gaudreau trade, we can surely get back more than a #4 dman, a player who is very close to being an absolute bust (injuries haven't helped him) and a late 1st. I would understand if the return was konecny+ or couturier but this is nowhere close.

You are vastly underrating Nolan Patrick. If his migraine issue has resolved itself and everything seems to indicate that then he is absolute blue chip player. Actually he has serious #1C upside and Philly probably tells BT to go pound sand as soon as he mentions his name. That is exactly the type of player we should be targetting in a Gaudreau trade.
