Whether I like this or not depends on the amount. Either way, they can now potentially get a mid round pick for him. If getting scratched for the playoffs didn't light a fire under his ass, absolutely nothing will. Last shot at the NHL for him, likely.

Bad move. Looks like Mike Grier was the brains of this operation.

For me, it depends on whether he got his NTC.

Leafs named Hayley Wickenheiser M.D. as an assistant GM today. Canucks have Emilie Castonguay and Cammie Granato in the same role. I think that's the key here. Women always think they can change a guy. Maybe one of those teams takes on Gauthier.

I'd rather him be on our 4th line than Greg McKegg or Goone McFacepunch.
We talk about this every summer. Nobody thinks we'll get down that far, but at some point, we will.

How dare you speak thus about Mr McFacepunch.
It is, this is just the official confirmation from NYR I guess.
Anyway, Gauthier sucks. That said, probably easier to trade him with him under contract than just trading his rights.
He could also change his mind and want to stay, in which case he's not the worst option at a 14th F.
Like I said in the other thread, of they could move him for a guy a couple years younger who was okay to play in the AHL, and who may still have some limited upside, that would be fine by me.

We're CLEAN, we PROMISE!
True. He will play, injuries always occur. If his hands ever caught up to his legs, he would be dynamite. When I watch him, I'm in a sincere loss of words. Like.....he's huge has great speed, so what's wrong/missing? Rhetorical question.

I'm right there with you. He had a couple of rushes that brought me to the edge of the seat because of pure speed breaking down the wing and driving the net....and then when it fizzles out and I then realize it was Gauthier.
I have 0 problem with this guy on the 4th line, going in and out of the lineup with McFacePunch on a per opponent basis.

I thought I read he requested a trade. Can't see him being on the opening night roster. Probably a throw in on the next deal.

Knowing him, a potential trade will have an exciting breakthrough only to fizzle out when it gets near closing.

I know this is a joke but he's still in his RFA years and not eligible for a clause due to that

What is his salary? I know everyone wants him gone but if its a minimal salary Id be open to keeping him just for size/speed.

He's never going to play, time to cut our loses and try and get anything we can.
