They were better without Tavares than they were with him, that’s the point, that’s all. What you’re talking about is meaningless.
Tavares hasn’t moved the needle for the Leafs so I think it comes down to the fact that he’s not a guy that elevates players around him. Gaudreau on the other hand clearly opens up things for his line mates. Losing him will likely impact the Flames far greater especially in the transition game.
