Johnny Gaudreau Next Team Odds: Will Gaudreau Head Back Home to New Jersey?
Johnny Gaudreau is hitting free agency at the perfect time coming off of a career season. In 82 games, he put up a career high of 40 goals and 115 points for the Flames. He's expected to cash in big with a mega-deal but where will he end up?
As the days pass the odds of him remaining in Calgary begin to dip. Perhaps a trip back to New Jersey or even Philadelphia which is close to his home town would make sense. Here's a look at the Johnny Gaudreau next team odds.

|---|---|---|
| Flames | +185 | 35% |
| The Field | +355 | 22% |
| Devils | +550 | 15% |
| Islanders | +1000 | 9% |

Flames +185 (Bet $100 to win $185)
The Calgary Flames are the favorite to keep Johnny Gaudreau, as expected, but the odds are just 35%. Up until Wednesday at noon, the Calgary Flames are in the driver's seat because they can offer him an eighth year.
Calgary was a playoff team last year and got knocked out by the Edmonton Oilers but they put up 111 points last year. If they keep Gaudreau they are still a contender in the West but if he decides to leave, well they may have some tough decisions to make.
Devils +550 (Bet $100 to win $550)
Outside of the field, the New Jersey Devils have the next best odds to land Johnny Gaudreau. He is originally from New Jersey, although he's a lot closer to Philadelphia than he is where the Devils play, so it would be a homecoming of sorts.
New Jersey has nearly $27 million in cap space and can use some more scoring pop to go up top with Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier. They are close to being competitive and an addition of Gaudreau could jump-start that competitive timeline.
