I'd hope it was for other reasons why he wouldn't sign. I'm certain that's a half-truth at best. I'm inclined to believe more in the "Wanted to burn a year of ELC last year, Flyers wouldn't do it, agent and family got pissy, refused to sign..." story than anything else. bigg jay and JCon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That or he didn't want to be coached by Torts, pretty soon are we gonna have more young players dictating what team they will go to in the draft?

Taken from The Score Josh Wegman: Cutter Gauthier didn't divulge the exact reason for his trade request from the Philadelphia Flyers, but he did shed some light on his decision. "It wasn't one specific reason why I asked for a trade," Gauthier told reporters on a Zoom call Wednesday, including The Sporting Tribune's Derek Lee. "It was multiple, re-occurring issues that I'd seen over the past year and a half, two years of being under the Flyers organization. It kind of hit me all at once, thinking 'I can't move forward with this' and 'I really need to step up for myself and see what's best for my future' and that's what I did." He added: "I haven't seen one thing that's been remotely close to the reasons that I decided." Cryptic at its best. bb1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyers on upswing now so maybe tougher to make lineup compared to one of the worst in NHL. Could be the coach too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, if you believe what he said, he said it had nothing to do with the coach. Goalie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 Gauthier was supposed to be a part of that upswing tho. To me it sounds like he just isn’t a Flyers fan. Not sure what they did the past couple years to him, this leads me to think they maybe weren’t gonna guarantee him 9 games if he turned pro or no bonus money. Flyers have done lots of good the last 2 years in my opinion FrostyWinnipeg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are lots of asshat coaches or managers in every major pro league. Good or bad the players have to play for everyone even if they don't like it. Darryl "Chuckles" Sutter is another coach players hated but they had no choice. JCon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never understood that though, yes they have no choice while under contract, but if you've got good guys, don't you want to keep them? Like for instance, Scheif and Helle?
