Isn't he going to be 30 when the contract starts? People were saying (rightfully) that they were relieved that the Flames wouldn't be paying Gaudreau a huge amount when he's 35, but this contract goes even further into the future.
I also don't understand paying him now, before seeing him play and how the season goes. Makes the short term contracts to Kylington and Mangiapane even more puzzling
