Gaudette is the better scorer in this deal, so Chicago may end up winning this deal. However, he first needs to fully establish himself as an NHL regular. The Blackhawks also need to figure out what his top position will be (Gaudette can play all three forward positions).

Highmore is more of a bottom-six player at the National Hockey League level than Gaudette, but he is also more reliable and a low-maintenance performer. He should immediately slide into Vancouver's lineup as a grinding winger and possible penalty-killing option.

Gaudette has a lot of upside, so moving to Chicago could be a boon for his NHL career. He is worth picking up in many fantasy formats at this time. As for Highmore, he can continue to be ignored in most leagues.
