So the question is how much of an overpay do you build in for Calgary, and how much of a discount do you ask for because Gaudreau is a lot weaker defensively than most of the top paid wingers? There’s also the PO factor. Gaudreau has had a lot more trouble in the tighter checking POs than Rantanen and obviously Kucherov.

Also Last 3 seasons
Panarin 1.26 pt/g
Gaudreau .99 pt/g
Gaudreau is a wizard but Panarin has been the best Winger in the game the last 3 seasons IMO. Cant really use Panarin as a comparable even if it wasnt a stupid contract.
8x8.5 for Johnny. get'r done.
