Watch: Johnny Gaudreau's impact is immediate

An early return on, well, his early return.

With his first shot on goal on the first shift of his accelerated return from a broken finger, Johnny Gaudreau gave the Calgary Flames the lead over the Anaheim Ducks.

Gaudreau's sixth of the season came about three weeks ahead of schedule. He was expected to miss six weeks after having a procedure to repair the digit, but ended up missing just 10 games.
