I always felt Gaudreau was a little overrated. Really good player, but I never felt that he carried the team. I think a lot of GMs probably saw it the same way, hence why all the big offers he was expecting never came in.

Columbus was just so happy that a premiere player would actually sign with them, that they couldn't turn it down regardless of whether it was actually the right move at the right time.
