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 return to Sunday's game
Gaudette has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Wild due to an upper-body injury.
ANALYSIS
Gaudette exited Sunday's game midway through the second period, and he was ruled out ahead of the final frame. Prior to his departure, he recorded a hit and a plus-1 rating in 6:39 of ice time. It's not yet clear whether his upper-body injury will impact his availability for Tuesday's game against the Kings.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

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
Deal not imminent
Gaudette and the Senators continue to talk, but it looks like he will become a free agent Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
ANALYSIS
Gaudette came up just one goal shy of reaching the 20-mark during the 2024-25 regular season, setting a new personal best. Considering this was just the second time the 28-year-old center topped 20 points in a season, there may be a disconnect between his asking price and what the Senators are willing to offer. Still, Gaudette figures to draw interest when the market opens Tuesday and likely won't have to wait long for a new contract.
