Gaudreau is +51 because he's been good defensively, while putting up an all-time great offensive performance at 5v5. With Gaudreau on the ice, we're scoring 4.88 goals/60. In the last decade, that's 2nd only to 2013 Crosby, who missed 12/48 games and still almost won the Art Ross. Gaudreau would probably still be +40 if he didn't back-check just on the strength of his offensive play.
If Bergeron wins the Selke, it is only due to an eastern hockey media bias.
