They look pretty good right now, no? Not everything is a hyperbolic version of every slightly negative thing.

Other way to look at it is, would you rather be watching this team now without Gaudreau but with a late first for next draft and some b prospect? Even if Gaudreau walks, I don't think that's a huge win. I'd take a good season over that any day actually.
