Out of the realm of possibility for you? Well, I guess you can have that. I won’t argue. Doesn’t seem nuts to me!

We're speculating correct? How likely or reasonable is that? What is far more likely? What the timeline and known facts suggests.

Speculating should be done using the known facts. Not picking poop out of the air. You seem to be full of insults while clearly not knowing anything.

Nice try, but I dodge that quasi ad-hominem there and just say you don’t know me son.

You've been making ad-hominen attacks on both this subject and other big topic of the day! Even moving the conversation from the other thread to the this one. I didn't attack you, I attacked your knowledge of the known facts. I don't have to know you to do that.

I forgot I’m arguing with folks that are likely caught hook line and sinker by the media spin DB and Jonesy put on. Yes ok it’s ALL Cutter’s fault, the Philadelphia Flyers had nothing to do with it.

The first game Gauthier plays in Philadelphia I will bet no less than 10 grand that he scores a goal.

You’re maintaining that CG left for reason not related to the Flyers.

To me that is an unsustainable position, in the face of everything we’ve seen unfold, and the path they are STILL ON (IE nowhere) as a franchise. Nothing I’ve said is attacking you, just pointing out the fact that the spin seems to have worked on a lot of yous.


Still not a personal thing.

You are incorrect.

You also are either biased or unaware of what an ad-hominen is.

It was LaZy HaYes fault, according to the 4 eyed flyer guru Anthony SanFilippo 🫠

You thrive on obfuscation, my dude. Not the first time I’ve been on these boards, so I’ll just drop it. No point. No one is right, do you know that? This isn’t real life.

It couldn’t be that the Flyers aren’t a well run franchise and haven’t been for years. It was his PARENTS I’ll bet!

Nah, you just don't know the facts. It has previously been explained to you. Focus on what happened in March of 23, that's the most likely reason. The Flyers refused to sign Gauthier in March of 23 and burning off the first year of his ELC. As well as not being happy about the Flyers not being willing to guarantee him a roster spot.

If this isn't real life and no one is right, then why are you continually insulting people for not sharing your opinion? Don't cop out and say you're not. I'll link to the evidence if necessary.

In my opinion, no.
- MJL


Maybe maybe not. I don’t buy him not being able to burn a year off his ELC or not guaranteed a roster spot being it. He could have felt that way but I just think his advisors would have gotten him to move off such an immature position. There’s more to it.

Because it’s a dumb messageboard concerning a laughable franchise that I’ve dedicated a lot of my time in life cheering for? I don’t know man. Why does anyone do anything MJL?

Any chance Cutter and his advisors were looking big picture. Medical misadventures. Player development issues. A succession of old school coaches giving youth the hook and not letting them work through mistakes while vets get a long leash.
- Minnyhock


I agree with the big picture analysis, and the evidence seems to point to that, but people here get locked in and nothing will persuade them.

1. Cutter didn't want to stay with the Flyers for the ELC reasons and he showed his dissatisfaction by returning to college for 1 more year. Then he agreed to a trade to a club where a roster spot has also not been guaranteed (statements by Verbeek suggest he will again have to earn a spot).

2. Cutter is a prima donna, even though there is no evidence of that in his past and evidence to the contrary. (statements by his coach).

3. Cutter himself says there were lots of reasons. But hey, why the hell would we believe him over the Flyers?



So, forget it, Jake. Its Chinatown.

Is his position not immature if it was for other reasons that have been suggested?
