This is pure conjecture, and I wont speculate about Tkachuk, but I do wonder if thats an ancillary reason for Johnny to leave.

Gaudreau had a career year, but I bet it was hard. The demands were high. Maybe he just wanted to cash in and play out his career someplace where nobody cares? 8 more years of that kind of work, effort and pressure?

Being one of the top players in the league is hard work. Or...pot some flashy goals in Columbus for a King's ransom?
