Undrafted 3rd year right wing Matt Gaudreau(40) scores a new deal with Stockton Heat, AHL affiliate of Calgary Flames, where his brother Johnny plays, obviously bringing them closer together.
Signed by Bridgeport Sound Tigers for his first pair of pro campaigns, the small 5’9″ 190 lbs. forward played only 17 games scoring a goal and 4 assists.
He was mostly reassigned to affiliate Worcester Railers, where he was twice able to score 12 times and had a career high 21 assists and 33 points in 50 ECHL games.
A solid skater through four years at Boston College, he was able to take it up nicely as a senior scoring 8 goals and 27 assists in 30 games.
The 24-year old will need to work hard to stay at the upper level but with family close by may just elevate his game.
