Prospect Info: Cutter Gauthier

[robbieboy3686]

Despite the score I thought BU looked more composed and dangerous. Celebrini not shy about throwing post whistle shoves.

I would love to win the lottery and draft that little midget.

Goal by Gauthier on the PP

 

[HanSolo]

Perreault to Gauthier right on his tape, 3-1 BC. Still think they've been outplayed slightly but the defense and Fowler are keeping BU chasing.

All of BC's scoring are on the PP, all three of BC's three goals. I agree with you that at ES, Boston U has been playing better.

I've been flipping between the BU/BC game and UM/MSU (Lev) game.

This is my third game really watching Gaucher.

I think what will make him successful is his elusiveness around the offensive zone. That goal he scored - went completely under the radar and was open back door.

I don’t find him speedy - per se. Maybe quick, agile?

He reminds me of Laine. But the good parts of course

Average skater for me. Not slow. Not blazingly fast. He has good awareness for spacing. Good hands in transition but not a Kane-esque dangler either

 

[HanSolo]

Huge game for Smith. Four points on the night including a hattie

That dangle from Leonard too for Smith’s hatty was gorgeous

 

[HanSolo]

Cutter had a great individual rush and got the shot off while falling. Didn't convert but still cool to see

Yeah I've been critical of Leonard (but more so Perreault) in some of the BC games I've watched this season but that move by Leonard was stunning.

Yes - offensive instincts are there. Really a joy to watch

My only concern about this is will his offensive instincts make up for his skating ‘deficiency’? Or is that overblown?

 

[Gliff]

no clue how Fowler made that save lol.

 

[HanSolo]

Huge save by Fowler. Anyone missing this game with an ESPN+ account should watch it on replay. Really fun hockey.

Deficiency is overblown. I wouldn't sweat it. He skates well enough for the NHL.

 

[ScarTroy]

Looks like that should be another apple

 

[HanSolo]

Gauthier with the primary helper on Perreault's goal

 

[Gliff]

Another assist for Cutter. Looks good around the net.

 

[Leonardo87]

Another assist. 3 point night.

 

[Static]

The kid looks very good. It's exciting that we have essentially two top five picks this year.

 

[HanSolo]

This game has really gotten away from BU. Celebrini looked strong in the first two periods but he's been practically invisible in the third.

 

[HanSolo]

Hit to the head of Celebrini, speaking of, got a minor upgraded to a major. BU will have a powerplay for almost the rest of this period but putting up four on Fowler this in the zone seems highly unlikely.

 

[HanSolo]

Celebrini on the board. Awesome release from the right faceoff circle.

 

[DuckDuckGetz]

in the few games that i've watched of him, Cutter reminds me of Henrique with a better shot. plays an efficient game, good defensive awareness, not the quickest guy but strong on his skates, knows where to be on offense... just think he will be better at capitalizing on chances than Henrique
