https://x.com/friedgehnic/status/1744792106650980367?s=46&t=2hVb1vPytx9OUpdE0UPz6Q Seems like an unforced error here, and would have been a decision made by Briere when he took over in March. Who knew it would get this ugly, but pretty much every team burns a year with college players getting a few games in April

The guy might have a dumb reason for not wanting to play in Philly, but keep in mind that Briere also isn't going to come out and say something like, "We handled his situation poorly in this specific way and it made him not want to work with us anymore," which could 100% be what happened.

Lmao why would the flyers care about a bonus overage. They weren't even a cap team before they traded for Drysdale.

Oh they didn't sign him last year, like idiots, and then probably weren't going to call him up/involve him this year since things are going well enough....so who knows when his ELC clock starts ticking. Yeah now this makes sense. Great job Philly.

Darude - Adam Sandstorm posted:Lmao why would the flyers care about a bonus overage. They weren't even a cap team before they traded for Drysdale. That’s also probably a half-truth to cover for the primary reason, which is keeping his ELC eligibility as long as possible. Between signing bonuses and delaying his second contract Gauthier has probably already lost a ton of future money (assuming he’s as good as people think and also assuming proper investment of his early earnings)

He could have just pulled a Michkov. It's not like he was a mid/late round pick that needed to suck up. And max ELC is the same for everyone so he's not giving up money by telling teams he didn't like to gently caress off and dropping a couple spots in the draft.

He's pissed they hosed him around by not signing him. How would he know that would happen?

Nissin Cup Nudist posted:A lot of teams don't sign prospects after 1 year, but it never amounts to this It's relatively common for the higher end NCAA guys to only play 1 or 2 years in the NCAA before they get signed to the NHL. Just about every NHLer to come from the NCAA recently has followed that trajectory. Cooley, Makar, McAvoy, Power, Luke Hughes, Zegras, etc., - all of them played 1 or 2 years of NCAA at most. It sounds like Gauthier expected the same, and as a prospect he's probably just about ready for for the NHL, and the Flyers either said no or were non-committal about it.

Thankfully the college players can pretty much just threaten to stay for all the years and a team will trade them if a high enough draft pick.

He's also just turned 19 so he could have been eligible as soon as last year. Finish the NCAA season then play your 10 dead rubber games and burn that year. Clearly the Flyers had a different trajectory planned which already will have cost Cutter a huge amount of money, especially if he wasn't going to be able to burn that first ELC year this season. Which seems reasonable because of where the Flyers are in the standings...and also Torts. So great management all around.

There’s a video of him saying he didn’t want to leave BC on a sour note and really wanted to come back. So who knows. Could be the truth. Could be BS to cover that he didn’t want to play in Philly. e: also never listen to the Philly media.

I'm sure it's partly about the ELC starting but I genuinely think that also guys like him are ultra-competitive and think they're ready to be in the NHL (and in his case he's probably correct). Being told to be patient or that the team that drafted you isn't going to sign you even when you think/know you're ready has got to be frustrating for a guy who has been supremely successful at hockey basically his whole life. I wonder if the Ducks are going to sign him right away, or at least soon.
|
# ? Jan 9, 2024 23:21 |

I don't think the Ducks would have traded Drysdale plus a 2nd for him if they weren't confident of signing him. I'd expect it to be announced any day.

Philly probably wouldn’t agree to a college to pro time table. Anaheim isn’t going to lose anything on it to sign him whenever he wants to sign. BC is doing pretty well this year so he may play out the season. Neither would surprise me.

Fine he didn't wanna play here, whatever, it's done. But what I fail to understand is why he ghosted the team and refused to meet with Jones and Briere when they traveled to Sweden with that intent. It was handled poorly, and I'm sure the Flyers could've done things differently too.

I was a Penguins fan growing up and would have absolutely no problem playing for the Flyers, if the terms are acceptable and they don't gently caress with my ELC clock. I'm pretty sure it was 100% that second thing and 0% that first thing

I mean sure, I've been a Bruins fan my whole life and if I had the opportunity today to play in the NHL but for Toronto or Montreal I'd definitely do it. But when I was 18 or 19 I could see myself being a brat about it and forcing my way somewhere else if I had the opportunity and knew I could.

I think the smartest thing to do is the Adam Fox: go to Harvard or Yale or something for three/four years to get a degree. you can get some fake rear end job for the rest of your life as a fallback just by having the bull poo poo piece of paper, everyone gets As there, and then you can pick exactly where you want to go. easy
