The thing is, those are great plays by Gaudreau normally. His instincts tell him that the defence won't expect them. Thing is, in the playoffs the other team has been studying your tendencies at length, and the Ducks do expect them. His turn to make the adjustment.

yup teams know now he's a pass first guy. so they'll clog up passing lanes.
Johnny needs to shoot more to throw them off, make them commit a bit more to HIM and not his flanking teammate.

I think it is more because he has been snake bitten lately

I'd really like to see the guy work on his shot in the off-season. A Johnny that puts up beautiful tape to tapes AND has a nice wrister from in deep is the Johnny Calgary deserves.
