There’s a solid case to be made that nobody on the entire planet is currently playing better hockey than Johnny Gaudreau.
The 28-year-old winger has skyrocketed up the National Hockey League’s scoring leaderboard since the end of December, posting six goals and 21 points in his last 10 games with the Calgary Flames.
14 of those points — one goal and 13 assists — have come in the Flames’ last four games, three of which the team won in blowout fashion. Gaudreau has registered an astonishing 23 shots on goal in those four contests.
Those numbers look incredible on paper, but they somehow don’t even come close to doing Gaudreau’s play justice.
