Signing Johnny for $6M at pretty much any term would be an absolute steal

A tale of two soft as baby #### players over the last 2 seasons:
Nugent Hopkins - C - 27 years old
117GP 38G 58A 96PTS -3 .82PPG
Gaudreau - RW - 27 years old
126GP 37GP 70A 107PTS -8 .85PPG
Nugent Hopkins just re-signed for $5.125M
Gaudreau will re-sign for ??
Is Gaudreau more physical than RNH? Is he better defensively? Is he a better leader (obviously not, judging by the fact he’s lead the team in scoring nearly a decade and doesn’t wear a letter)?
$6M is fair for Gaudreau. If he wants $8M, he needs to improve outside of his offensive production, otherwise I hope he gets that money from a different team.
