Frederick Gaudreau News: Dealt to Seattle

Gaudreau was dealt to Seattle from Minnesota on Thursday in exchange for a fourth-round pick in 2025, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Gaudreau registered 18 goals, 19 assists and 110 shots on goal across 82 regular-season games for the Wild in 2024-25. The 32-year-old led Minnesota in faceoff draws with 1,097, winning 529 (48.2 winning percentage). He will center one of the bottom two lines with the Kraken, likely the fourth unit, with Matty Beniers, Chandler Stephenson and Shane Wright ahead of him on the depth chart.
