You either want that guy on your team or you don’t, and the time to decide you don’t is not 12 hours before the opening of free agency.

29 year old isn’t quite the sales pitch you think it is. Nor is saying his point production varies wildly over 4 years. And no, you can’t just trade rights for Gaudreau. He has a 5 team list. What’s your high end price point for Gaudreau anyway? $13M?
