I think it has to be Gaudreau....unless he signs an extension before the draft.

Personally i dont believe you can expect great success with him as the main guy. He is a tremendous offensive talent, but thats it with him. He cant help the club when he isnt scoring. Then you add in he will be seeing a NTC kicking in at the start of the league year, he can walk for nothing at next seasons end, and his price tag now....he has to be the one.

Obviously one, or two, will be gonzo, but as far as asset management goes it just has to be JG unless he agrees to that extension.
