The agent, however, kept things private, saying:
"It's a private issue between the player and his family. We definitely had conversations with Philadelphia, we had very respectable conversations with Philadelphia about it, we've chosen just to take the high road and leave all that information private."
With this statement, the agent added an air of confidentiality to Gauthier's departure, leaving fans and pundits speculating about the reasons behind the unexpected trade, but others are providing some insight.
Flyers Patrick Sharp and John LeClair flew to Gauthier's school to watch and speak with him, but Gauthier declined to speak with the Flyers members after his game, making it a pointless trip for the teams management.
