If Gaudreau has another solid year (at least a point-per-game), what would he likely get in free agency? Is $9.5 million per year out of the question? I don’t think it is. I imagine gaudreau’s camp is asking for that.

Unless Treliving is really low-balling him, he’s probably offering something like $8 million per year. I think if this deal gets done, it’s likely around the $9 million per year mark.

The reality is that Johnny is the most skilled player on the team. I hope the flames do re-sign him before training camp. Would be great to have a player of his talent locked in long-term.
