Yeah, but where? Is there a team in the NE US that has not only the cap room to pay him, but is also poised to win a championship?
Why would Gaudreau leave behind what he has here? He clearly loves the team and the city. His family loves it in Calgary. The team looks great. His line is the best in hockey.
That is A LOT to give up just to get closer to home. I think he will stay if the Flames offer him something competitive. Most of the offers he will ge fielding will ge in markets he does not know, and are likely with teams not in a position to compete.
