He has a lot of trade value and could likely bring back a better player than anyone else on the team (Lindholm probably should be worth more, but he would never be traded).

Gaudreau on the other hand, has been with the team since 2011 and has unequivocally stated that he wants to sign long term. He's durable and I doubt he'll regress any time soon.

It would be silly to pay two left wingers 17+ million when there are so many other holes in the lineup.

Both of them don't have much term. So to maximize value, you'll have to make the trade sooner rather than later.
Can you link to a story or a tweet or anything where any of these things were stated?
