Gaudreau said his mind wasn't made up that he would be leaving Calgary, even after rejecting an eight-year contract extension before hitting the open market. Gaudreau signed a seven-year, $68.25 million US contract with Columbus last Wednesday after positing 40 goals and 115 points in 82 games with Calgary in 2021-22.
Drafted by Calgary in the fourth round of the 2011 draft, Gaudreau called leaving "the toughest decision I've ever had to make."
