He's one of the best players on the ice today and could easily have 2 points right now if it wasn't for some lucky saves by Berra.
On a side note.. man does Berra make several big saves but then lets in squeakers and pucks that go right through him.

Ok, that's it…I've been tempering my expectations of Gaudreau forever now because of many factors that have been mentioned ad nauseum, but I'm fully on board with Gaudreau not only being an NHL player next season, but probably being a rookie of the year candidate. I'm done being cautiously optimistic, I'm going to be just plain optimistic from here on out.
Go Johnny Hockey!!!

He is too small to make it in the NHL.

Reason: I say that out of pure jealousy, he seems to have a good future ahead of him.

What???? He was all over the ice today in the first and second and a few shifts in the third.
He was one of the best players on the ice. I hate using this line but you clearly never watched the game at least not all of it.

I agree with you, he was ridiculous. Easily one of the most noticeable players all game. Anyone saying differently, has zero clue what they're taking about.

You didn't even need to watch the game to know that he was a factor, as long as you had the volume on you could hear them complementing Johnny on several occasions.
I have to admit his size is concerning but he is incredibly fun to watch and is spectacular on the PP. This tournament is an unbelievable opportunity for him given the ice time and responsibility he is getting.

Commentators did mentioned that Johnny has to skate more and use his speed and be more selfish at times.
Other than that all complements.

Only saw parts of the 1st and 2nd, watched the entire 3rd. So no, didn't see the entire game, Christ people.

Then why say he is disappointing? when everyone else in the thread was praising his play?

What did you expect? Pretty much the deserved reaction you got I would imagine.

Never said that. I said it was disappointing that I didn't notice him.

He just makes everyone look clueless, he knows what he's going to do 2-3 steps before anyone else knows and if they catch on he pulls a move and leaves them wanting. 
I almost have zero doubts his game will translate, it's one of pure skill. Getting hurt is my only legitimate concern.

That might be the worst save I've ever seen.
