Blackhawks Sign Adam Gaudette

Adam Gaudette was one of the restricted free agents the Blackhawks to whom the Blackhawks either needed to extend an offer sheet or sign before Monday’s deadline, or he could have become an unrestricted free agent.

According to Scott Powers of The Athletic, the Hawks have signed Gaudette to a one-year deal worth $997,500.

Chicago acquired Gaudette from Vancouver before the deadline this past season for Matthew Highmore. He scored one goal with four assists in seven games with the Hawks.

    Good signing. Great Potential. Can’t believe the Kracken did not take him.

    I was actually hoping Gaudette would be signed longer at low cost.

    SB pursued when Adam when he was Playing Sikura. Both put up serious numbers that year at NE.

    The fact that Adam out up 5 points in seven games w Hawks- Says something.

    I really liked what I saw in small sample from Both Hardman and Gaudette. Both have size and some touch. And Both put up strong numbers in College playing w Skill guys. Hope they can pan out to be Brouwer/Bickell types.
