Default Would you trade Johnny hockey

Dont' get me wrong I am a real Johnny hockey fan and enjoy watching him, there is no doubt he has the most skill of any of the flames. I do have concerns about how effective he will be in tight checking physical games.
If you were the GM of Buffalo, Arizona, or Edmonton would you trade your 2015 first round draft pick for johnny Gaudreau.

Short answer, No. Long answer, Nooooooooo!

Gifted players like Johnny don't fall into your lap every day or every decade. Johnny in CGY is like winning the Lotto max. Invest it. Don't give it away to everyone else for more lottery tickets.

If I have to change my avatar again, and have another obsolete jersey, I may start hurting people, so no!

Depends on the package you get in return.

I think he's a great player, but for some reason I have a feeling he'll top out as a great second liner... Which is fine in my opinion, but not untouchable. I hope he proves me wrong though.

I would trade him for one of the top 2 picks in a heart beat. Maybe even the third.

No but I think his most effective games and most enjoyable to watch have been the wide open games
