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.

Tips in goal
Gaudette scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Panthers.
ANALYSIS
Gaudette got a tip on a Dmitry Orlov shot in the second period. The tally stood as the game-winner, Gaudette's first such goal this season. The 29-year-old center had gone four games without a point and also missed four contests due to an upper-body injury during that stretch. He's a finisher on offense, but his chances will likely remain limited since he's on the fourth line and second power-play unit. On the year, Gaudette has four goals, one assist, 17 shots on net, nine hits, eight PIM and a minus-4 rating over 12 appearances.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021

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.
