The big difference between Coleman and Gaudreau is rarity. Gaudreau is a unique talent and pretty much has his pick of the litter. I would bet that if Gaudreau went around to every team, there would be at least 25 GMs that, after climaxing, would sign Gaudreau and then figure out the cap after the fact.
