Gaucher is already a fierce forechecker, someone who can knock opponents on the boards, steal pucks from them, and protect them long enough to find an outlet with a deft backhand pass. His ability to slip pucks around or under the stick of opponents to open teammates allowed his team to quickly transition the puck from zone to zone. Gaucher also provides value in front of the net, where his imposing frame prevents goalies from tracking shots. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
