Sort of, but not really.
Gaudreau led the Dubuque Fighting Saints with 72 points in 60 games as a 17-year-old his one and only season in the USHL, and then he went straight to Boston College. Farrell scored 19 in 28 at the same age while playing for the USNDT. He only started playing in the USHL in his 18-year-old season. Gaudreau was in his third and final season in the NCAA as a 20-year-old—the same age that Farrell is now in his rookie season. Gaudreau scored 80 pts in 40 GP that year, and was the highest scorer in college hockey by a country mile. Farrell is not even the highest scorer on his team through two games.
