The Chicago Blackhawks announced today that they have agreed to terms with forward Adam Gaudette on a one-year contract extension that runs through the 2021-22 season ($997,500 salary cap hit).

A native of Braintree, Massachusetts, Gaudette recorded four points (1G, 3A) in seven games with Chicago after being acquired by the Blackhawks from the Vancouver Canucks on April 12, 2021. The 24-year-old had four goals and three helpers in 33 games with the Canucks prior to the deal.

Gaudette posted career highs in games played (59), goals (12), assists (21) and points (33) during the 2019-20 campaign. He also skated in 10 Stanley Cup Playoff games during the 2020 postseason. In 153 career regular-season games with Vancouver, Gaudette had 52 points (21G, 31A).

I grew up playing Ball and Roller Hockey day and night somewhat religiously throughout elementary and middle school. The two don't compare though when I lace up the skates and hit the ice. I live and breathe hockey beyond the perspective of "it's just a game" and I will gladly talk hockey for hours with anyone. Hockey is more than just a lifestyle, it's a culture of passionate people who make memories every time the puck is dropped. Hockey has not only helped me get through some of the hardest times in life but has created some of the best memories to date. Want to talk hockey with me?
