When asked about tonight's game, Gauthier said that there's going to be a lot of emotions and that there will be plenty of tears for the opposing team, the University of Denver.
Boston College and Cutter Gauthier would go on to get shutout by the University of Denver in the final by a score of 2-0, with the tears likely being shed by the Ducks prospect. Gauthier, who had a strong season with Boston College and at the World Juniors, will likely turn professional and sign with the Anaheim Ducks, although he said he hasn't talked with the team recently.
There's nothing wrong with being confident in yourself and your abilities, as well as what your team is capable of doing, but Gauthier's comments are cocky, there's no other way to put it. But, he can use this as a learning opportunity and to grow as he takes the next step in his career.
