Exactly. I feel like no one is acknowledging this. What would we have gotten for Johnny at the beginning of last year? He's got one season left on his contract, he just came off 2 down years and has not won anything of significance in this league yet. 1 year of an elite Johnny Gaudreau performance is probably more valuable than anything you could've gotten for him at that time.
So, for those who are saying Treliving bungled this, what would you have done?
