Yes, ridiculously dramatic.
If they had traded Gaudreau a year ago, or at the deadline, they would likely have another Zary-type prospect, from a late 1st, and another prospect or player. Maybe a prospect AND a player.
Ooh... that totally changes the outlook of the organization for at least the next 10 years!!
