Johnny Gaudreau is but a newbie. He's 21 years old - though he'll be 22 this summer - with one season under his belt. A very, very good season, but just one.
While we probably know where he stands - he's a first liner already - how have others, who have had similar seasons, followed it up? What about other youngsters?
Using @MannyElk's statistical similarity calculator, hosted on War on Ice, we can get a quick look at which players have had seasons comparable to Gaudreau's rookie year. These are based on scoring rates per 60 minutes, offensive contributions, general possession stats, and ice time.
