Prospect Info: Cutter Gauthier

[Boo Boo]

Seeing Nester tonight kinda put this in my head...

If you are Cutter, do you want your pro debut to be on the last game of a shit season for the club only to immediately go into the offseason? I mean, you make a few bucks but seems like kind of a let down.

I don't know the particulars, and who am I to talk, but I think if I were in his situation I'd want my debut to be next year when everyone is focused on a new year and there is hope in the building/locker room.

If I am cutter I want to play asap

Hard to argue with that lol. I don't think it's 100k though is it? I think it's "only" like $12k. He'd get the signing bonus regardless

I get to restricted free agency as quickly as I can. That warm fuzzy starting the season fresh is likely a multimillion career loss.

Is the 1 game going to make that big of a difference?

If it burns a year off his ELC and he’s making 2-3M instead of 900K that year, yes.

1 game burns a whole year? I thought it was 10? Maybe I had too many drowning the sorrows of another loss

10 is for juniors kids. 1 for college kids. Nesterenko and LaCombe are both RFA at the end of this season.

Oooooo ok good point. So then delete everything I said the replies. I'm playing 1 game no matter what, dumb question

I know it’s what he wants but getting to RFA quicker sometimes backfires on the player when they didn’t develop quite as fast as they thought they would. Some teams see burning that year as a plus for them, saving money in the RFA contract years.

I’ll be happy to see him sign, but with this team’s track record of being awful and always injured, he might not hit the big time financially when that elc runs out. Oh well, we’ll all have something else to bitch about by then.

Just a reminder BC plays Michigan in the Frozen Four at 5:30 PT tomorrow, and it's on ESPN2, and should be available on ESPN+ as well

 

[duxfan1101]

61 is a brutal number, but I hope he can make it his own. Rick Nash is the only notable player I remember wearing it.

Wow I forgot about that.

 

[Static]

Wow I forgot about that.

The ducks only seem to give out like five different numbers for rookies. 37, 51, 67 the main ones.

 

[Rooch]

Luneau in 67 and Cutter in 61.

Did anyone else feel weirdly reassured after he didn't deny that he was going to Anaheim haha?

 

[Hockey Duckie]

Luneau in 67 and Cutter in 61.

and potentially Colangelo in 66.

Already thought about how he can't wear 19!

Enquiring minds really wan to know the rest of the Chicken Parm t-shirt.

They are done. If they win, they play the finals on Saturday.
