Probably a rough summer with his dad's health problems, but I think he has looked sluggish all preseason and was one of the worst skaters on the ice last night.

Highest paid forward on the roster, expectations should be high.
Johnny Gaudreau was not, by any reasonable measure, one of the worst skaters on the ice last night. You've lost touch with reality.
