But seriously, are you serious? The only part of your post I agree with is when you said Bolland and Bozak were injured. Everything else is laughable.

We're not allowed to call up Gauthier after sending him back to Jr..
But after reading he is ripping the QMJHL, I looked at his stats - he isn't even the top player on his team, or at a PPG pace - there's a player on a 2+ PPG pace. That said, I know Gauthier isn't supposed to be an offensive superstar, and is a solid 2-way center, but he's not ready yet. Especially slotting him as a first line center. Kadri has more offensive upside than him.
On a sidenote, Drouin is lighting it up again without Mackinnon this time!

I'm actually slightly concerned that he hasn't taken a step offensively, looking more like a 3rd liner right now... which wouldn't be horrible. PPG in the quebec league is average it's a ridiculously high scoring league... Drouin has like 29 points in 15 games

No need to worry about how someone represents your fan group. It's more embarrassing that you cringe over some stranger's opinion because it fails your test for sophistication and uniformity for a Leafs' fan because it might be mocked by some other strangers.

He was -2 last night and is not even at a PPG yet in the QMJHL. If he can be a #3C one day for us, this will be a victory.

In theory could call him up on an emergency basis...but yeah that's not going to happen, he's nowhere near ready. He'll be in junior again next year, and then with the Marlies the year after that.

This is embarassing...
Especially considering that the OP trashes our current C's with his "nicknames".
Probably one of Marchand's cousins coming on here to troll the Leafs' board.

How many points did he get last year?
In your post draft year, most 1st rd picks improve their production to be considered as a blue chip prospects. The status quo of last year's only modest stats is not progression.
Not unless our expectations for this prospect are a ceiling max #3C.

Watched him last night in Moncton.
Unfortunately his offensive game hasn't taken off..
He's a big body , but struggled in the circle and isn't offensive minded at all. He didn't seemed interested , no drive.
He was good without the puck. Played in all three zones. Was used on the PK. His -2 wasn't really anything to do with him , their goalie struggled early and let in a few bad goals.
Unless something changes drastically , I doubt he'll ever be anything more than a 3rd line guy. He actually reminds me more and more of David Steckal....

He reminded me of Nik Antropov lite when I saw him this summer, that would be preferable to Steckel who was also a former first rd pick. Thanks for your honest review. We need more honest assessments on our prospects here. One can only hope he shows more. But thus far, bottom 6 player is what we have here.

1. Thank goodness this wasn't posted on the main board.
2. Think before you make threads, it really seems like you're trolling.
3. I would be more then happy if Gauthier becomes a 30 pt, shutdown 3rd line center.

I agree I think it has run its course considering he is not even available for this season and developing in the CHL.
