When Cutter Gauthier departed for the NHL after his sophomore season, one of the questions surrounding the Boston College men’s hockey team was how his absence would affect linemates Andre Gasseau and Oskar Jellvik, who were returning for their junior seasons.
The assist totals for both have dipped, and that was to be expected considering Gauthier led the nation with 38 goals in 2023-24. But overall, the coaching staff liked what it saw in the first half. Whereas perhaps they were focusing on getting Gauthier the puck and watching the 2022 No. 5 overall pick do his thing, the duo has been more assertive this season.
