Wooo! Happy to wake up to this deal. Big big money, but I was more than fine to give this to Gaudreau. Now the team has given it to a player who is slightly better than Johnny, relatively the same age and has more of a variety of skillsets. Not much to be upset about.
If you are going to give a large contract to a player on the latter half of his career, it better be an elite player. JH is that player.
Good day for Flames' fans and sweet redemption for how brutal not only this off-season had been, but getting spanked by the Oilers in the playoffs.
