Scouting Report:
Corey Pronman - The Athletic
"Gauthier has the tools that can make you easily envision him in the NHL. He has a thick [6-foot-2] frame and can skate like an NHL player. With his size and speed he can overpower opponents to force turnovers or in how he attacks the net. Gauthier can create with his skating and skill, but his main offensive weapon is his shot. He can pick corners from distance with a powerful wrist shot."

"Gauthier was a second-half riser in many Draft rankings, and wound up fifth in McKenzie's list and 7th on Button's list. He has a nose for the net and a combination of good size (6-foot-2 1/2, 201 pounds) and good skating ability. Gauthier is expected to play some center at Boston College but it remains to be seen whether he'll be a long-term winger, a center or a swingman depending on his linemates. He is a plus shooter and an above-average skater for a player his size. He won't dazzle with fancy plays but he wins puck battles and recognizes offensive opportunities."
