Explanation? I think it speaks for itself. Gaudreau is the best player in the trade and you are essentially offering a cap dump and a meaningless 1st. Gaudreau is more important to the Jackets than trading him. Gaudreau also has been a victim of terrible coaching and personnel decisions since he got here. I expect Gaudreau will break out this year bc he very likely to have more consistent linemates and whoever is the new GM will likely try to improve this team bc the rebuild phase is over and now it is more about making a move towards being a contender.
