They forget because he was never scratched for 5 or 6 games. Gaudreau played 80 games in his rookie season. He was scratched once for once game really early, after 5 games of no production at all, and came back to score a goal, and he stayed for the rest of the season.

He was scratched the next year for being hung over. That’s it.
