2025 Fantasy Outlook
After starting 2024-25 on a torrid pace with 13 goals in his first 26 games, Gaudette came back down to earth and found the back of the net just six times over his final 55 outings. Overall, the right-shot forward had seven helpers, 26 points, 90 shots on goal and a plus-12 rating across a career-high 81 regular-season appearances with Ottawa. While Gaudette has a cannon of a shot, he probably hit his ceiling in the goal column given that his previous high-water mark was 12 in 2019-20 with Vancouver. The Massachusetts native could earn more ice time with the Sharks in comparison to what he managed with the Senators, but his 21.1 shooting percentage from last season is unsustainable going forward.

Signed a two-year, $4 million contract with the Sharks in July of 2025.
Won't play Wednesday
Gaudette (lower body) won't play against Minnesota on Wednesday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
ANALYSIS
Gaudette will miss at least one game after getting injured in Monday's 5-4 win over Anaheim. He has contributed eight goals, 14 points, 49 shots on net and 32 hits across 33 appearances this season. Following his call-up from AHL San Jose on Tuesday, Pavol Regenda will probably replace Gaudette in Wednesday's lineup.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2019
2018
Gaudette's 2019-20 mini-breakout (12 goals, 33 points, 12 power-play points in 59 games) seems like a thing of the past on the heels of a 2020-21 season which saw him post career-low numbers (five goals, 11 points in 40 games) in addition to a late-season trade from Vancouver to Chicago. The Blackhawks will welcome back Jonathan Toews and Kirby Dach on a full-time basis this coming year, in addition to acquiring Tyler Johnson in a deal with Tampa Bay, further pushing Gaudette down the depth chart. There isn't much to like here from a fantasy perspective.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Nearing return to action
Gaudette is close to returning from an upper-body injury and could be ready to face the Kraken on Wednesday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
ANALYSIS
Gaudette will need to be activated off injured reserve before he can suit up Wednesday, but he certainly seems to be trending in the right direction. With William Eklund out with a lower-body injury, Gaudette could be shifted to the wing in a top-six role while also chipping in on one of the power-play units.
