A desperate Flyers franchise with deep pockets that also happens to be Gaudreau’s hometown is going to make him a monster offer. Throw Jersey into the mix as another team close to home with all kinds of cap space that will be able to make a huge offer.
I don’t think there’s any doubt* Gaudreau will land a huge contract. It’s just a matter of where.
* The only thing I could see devaluing him below $10 mil a season is if he gets shut down again in the playoffs.

With those 2 off the books the Flyers have $13M to sign 13 players (as per Capfriendly) as they only have 10 signed for next season. A little tougher than you think. And they only have 2 defencemen currently signed for next season.
