Blue Jackets star Johnny Gaudreau draws packed house for scrimmage, says he 'couldn't care less' about Calgary Flames offseason moves.
“I’m very fortunate,” said Gaudreau, who finished third in the NHL with 115 points last season and left Calgary with 609 points in 602 games. “In Calgary, the fans were awesome to me and they loved the Flames because that was their team. Columbus, this is probably their big team. You know, they don’t have football team or MLB or anything like that, so it’s nice. I already got recognized a few times in the city, so I don’t mind it.
Treliving responded by trading Gaudreau’s former linemate, Matthew Tkachuk, to the Florida Panthers in exchange for star forward Jonathan Huberdeau and MacKenzie Weegar ― one of the NHL’s most unheralded defensemen.
Asked about the Flames staying competitive, Gaudreau drew a clear distinction between his professed love for Calgary as a place to live and his feelings about his former NHL team. “No, I mean, when I say I love Calgary, it’s the city,” Gaudreau said. “Now that I’m with Columbus, I couldn’t care less what they do as a team. I mean, obviously I want to beat them, but as a city, the fans, the organization, the way they treated me … I always loved it there and it was a great place to play for the nine years.”“Once I left, I didn’t care anymore about the team, obviously,” Gaudreau said. “I was more focused on the Blue Jackets and what our team was going to do.
