I agree. It’s tougher to see the fire in smaller, softer guys, because making the big hit or fight is just not in the toolbox. But whether it’s a solo effort play or a hard backcheck, you can certainly see the drive that Gaudreau plays with. The guy has won consistently until arriving with the Flames, at which time he has elevated the team to the playoffs twice after many years of missing the dance. Just because he isn’t the whole solution doesn’t mean he isn’t part of it
