Johnny Gaudreau picked the perfect time to have the best season of his career. "Johnny Hockey" as he's affectionately known, put up 115 points this past season. Fortunately for Gaudreau it came in a contract year allowing him to maximize his potential payout.
However, Hockey Insider Nick Kypreos believes the Gaudreau situation reminds him of what occured between John Tavares and the New York Islanders. When the Captain chose to leave the Islanders for his childhood team the Toronto Maple Leafs.
