Johnny Gaudreau is not at Patrick Kane’s level. He has his flaws, that’s why he went in the 4th round. The harsh truth is, if Johnny Gaudreau is your top offensive player, your team isn’t a championship calibre team. That’s not on him, that’s on the organization for not finding him the necessary help and support.
It was the same story for Iggy, the same story for Theo in the 90’s and it’ll probably be the same story for Chucky in 2020’s. Until this organization finally finds an elite #1 center, this franchise will be stuck in perpetual mediocrity. Forever good, but never good enough.

Someone mentioned Kane as someone Gaudreau should emulate - my only comparison is why they are different.
Offensively Gaudreau is a lot more like Datsyuk.
