			I think he could become a 30 point, third line type of guy in the NHL, should have gotten more of a look here IMO.

			I would not be too worried about this. Gawdin is a fine AHLer, but I would be very, very surprised if he turned into much in the NHL.

Really? 
 
He stagnated in the AHL and never showed anything in the NHL.  Classic average tweener.

I don’t even need much. I just want drafted players/prospects to want to stay here and fill roles.

			Similar to Derek Grant’s career trajectory, as a best case scenario?

I doubt that.  What in his game did you see that makes you think he'll pop at age 25?

Why? We have better prospects and he cant skate. 
There’s a reason the Blues gave up on him.

			20+ teams were interested?I wonder if the Flames were one of them or if he gave us the cold shoulder after we buried him for so long.

			He's a Buddy Robinson.  Can light up the AHL, but probably tops out as a 4th liner in the NHL.

I don't see it. He's 25 and has played a grand total of nine NHL games to date. The team that drafted him didn't even give him a contract. To me, he just looks like one of those guys who top out as really good career AHLers, but don't have anything special to bring to the show.

			Like with Austin Czarnik, a bit of a bidding war with teams looking for organizational depth.
 A tweener who can fill a leadership role on the farm with an occasional call-up.

			Gawdin is a tweener, just doesn't have the speed or talent to generate offense in the NHL.
 Good luck to him though.

			I am just trying to calculate how many teams are actively trying to tank hard...
