The high ppg that he and Monahan have put together over the last 7 years has not translated to the Flames being a good to great team as it has for basically every other player in the top 30 with those kind of individual stats.
1 finish in the top 2 of their division and 1 playoff series win over 7 seasons is not the kind of results that you would expect from a top 10 player in the league.

On Philly, his most likely landing spot, Giroux, Couturier, Voracek, Hayes and JVR along with Provorov moves Gaudreau into a far more comfortable support position taking Konecny's spot as small skilled forward.
Philly's window is closing as Giroux, Voracek and JVR age out and take up too much cap space for their contribution.
