Would be a teetering-on-the-brink kind of stance to have, but then again, so might BT's job?
I am in the camp that a Gaudreau extension should be paired with an Eichel trade. That's how you sell Gaudreau to re-sign and you convince Eichel that he will have a steady linemate. I don't see a point in extending Gaudreau if we can't provide him a #1C.
