Career
Gaudreau played during his junior years between fall 2011 and November 2013 for the Cataractes de Shawinigan in the Québec Major Junior Hockey League .

Selke trophy for the fairest athletic player in the league. In the course of the game, Gaudreau had only spent two minutes in the penalty box.
Without drafting , the French-Canadian switched to the professional field in the summer of 2014 and signed a one-year contract with the Milwaukee Admirals from the American Hockey League , who also used him in the ECHL at the Cincinnati Cyclones during the season . Due to his performance, the expiring contract was renewed before the 2015/16 season . After Gaudreau had developed into one of the cornerstones of the Admirals' team during the course of the game, the Nashville Predators from the National Hockey League , who were in cooperation with Milwaukee, became aware of the center forward. In January 2016 he finally received a two-year NHL entry contract . Over the course of the season, however, he stayed in the AHL and only made his NHL debut for the Predators shortly after the start of the 2016/17 season . At the end of the season he reached the final of the Stanley Cup with Nashville, but lost to the Pittsburgh Penguins there .
