Rumor: Leafs do not qualify Freddy Gauthier

[HoweHullOrr]

Bracco didn’t get qualified either? Oh well can’t throw him in every single leafs proposal now!

Oh, don't worry. We'll find a replacement to offer instead of Bracco. We always do.

GOAT is gonna go somewhere and be a good 3c just to spite us

No he won't, not a chance, he's awful

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Hopefully they bring in Joe Thornton because even at 41 he's way, WAY better

 

[HuGo Sham]

dude always thought he was playing with a flower instead of a stick - and no, habs aren't interested

 

[Mugzy97]

Too slow. Bad pick at the time and everyone was right.

 

[LMFAO]

7 years too late

It was a head-scratcher when he was drafted in the first round (I believe the consensus was he had 3rd-line center upside; Good size but won't bring anything offensively) and unfortunately was never able to prove the critics wrong.

 

[Cotton]

Nooo.

 

[NHL WAR]

Low risk, low reward. I'd take him back as 13th/14th forward

 

[Forge]

Mirco Mueller..."notable" lol

 

[inthe6ix]

about time

sick and tired hearing goat as his nickname

good locker room guy but gentle giant on the ice

guy could carry a carton of eggs out there every game and never break any

That is typical for players 20-40. Thry are grnerally 3rd liners as in checkers or secondary scoring lines with boom/bust potential.

I don’t think he was a reach when he got picked or Toronto pulled a Columbus thus year.

 

[DFC]

end of an era.

 

[Pyrophorus]

The Leafs have been really patient with him, but he is what he is. Weird pick to begin with, but a loyal and good guy

That whole was pretty horrid, got Johnsson out of it though...was that the Biggs draft?

 

[Oddbob]

Oh great, what happens to his commercial now!

 

[Pyrophorus]

Mtl bound fosho

McCarron version 2.0.

 

[SHANNYPLAN]

Future Montreal Canadien

Not surprised.

 

[Ciao]

I love Freddy and he's had every opportunity but I just don't think he has it in him.

No snarl.

Someone needs to kick him in the balls once in a while to make him one miserable son of a bitch on the ice. His career depends on it.

 

[viceroy]

McCarron version 2.0.

McCarron may never have panned out but he'd have run over Gauthier. McCarron was never scared to drop 'em and it got him injured.

 

[DANTHEMAN1967]

Oh great, what happens to his commercial now!

No Leafs logo so it's all good.

 

[Halla]

30 teams will be lining up to sign him

not when they figure out the off ice issues

leipsic treatment

Gauthier is at least an NHL warm body. Mccarron isnt even that

its great to be able to throw a hit, but you have to be able to play hockey as well.

 

[sansabri]

Montreal should sign him for cheap. I always thought he would play a bit better for them. He seemed like a fun guy but even when he was drafted by the Leafs there was this apathetic reaction that seemed to extend to his on ice play. Find a place where he fits in and you’ve got some gold cuz honestly, the only thing holding him back from being a quality fourth liner and pk specialist is his utter lack of intensity.

if there's no room for him on the Leafs' bottom six, there's not going to be any room on ours

Never said McCarron was a bonafide NHL'er. Just that when toughness came into play he was twice the guy Gauthier was.
