Heres a .gif of the second Gaudreau goal. Beauty set up from Matheson
Nice to see some real talent to go upstairs in tight. The current crop of Flames would have buried that puck into the goalie's pad or chest.

I also realized on my way home that BC's Johnny Gaudreau hasn't lost a tournament in the past three years. His championship hat collection includes a Clark Cup (USHL), two Beanpots, a Hockey East Championship (with another in the crosshairs), an NCAA National Championship (with another in the crosshairs) and a World Junior Championship. Furthermore, he's played an integral role on every single team. He might look like he's 12, stand 5'6 with his skates on and weigh his listed 140 pounds with all his equipment on sopping wet, but he's a bonafide winner. Last year the Flames draft pick earned 44 points in 44 games as a freshman. He's already got 36 points in 23 games so far this season and has Hobey Baker Finalist written all over him.
CBS now has him 2nd on the Hobey Baker watch behind Ryan Walters:

Still one of if not the most dynamic player in college hockey, Gaudreau's Hobey candidacy remains strong despite his sophomore standing. He'll have a lot to do to surpass a guy like Walters, especially as BC has hit a bit of a rough patch in the second half. That said, he's still producing at nearly a point-and-a-half per game for one of the nation's best teams. Gaudreau has the name recognition, signature moments by way of highlight reel goals and passes, and high potential for success in the postseason.
