This sucks but it's just the reality when your are a small market Canadian team and your best player happens to be from the US. I can't fault Gaudreau for wanting to eventually head closer to home and family. Many of us in the same position would probably want the same thing. Flames still own his rights for three more seasons so while nothing imminent is required it's probably something that the team will have to address as soon as next offseason as I don't feel the road the Blue Jackets took is the way to go as he's far too valuable an asset to lose for nothing.
