John Michael "Johnny" Gaudreau (born August 13, 1993 in Salem , New Jersey ) is an American ice hockey player who has played in the Calgary Flames in the National Hockey League on the position of left winger since April 2014 .
Career
Johnny Gaudreau began his career in the junior division ( Midget-AAA ) with the Philadelphia Junior Flyers in the Atlantic Youth Hockey League (AYHL) and with Team Comcast in the Midwest Elite Hockey League (MWEHL). For the 2010/11 season, the winger moved to the Dubuque Fighting Saints from the United States Hockey League (USHL), the highest junior division in the United States. With the Saints, he won the Clark Cup , the USHL's championship trophy, at the end of the season , and was honored with several personal awards, including the election for Rookie of the Year .
Gaudreau played for Boston College in Hockey East , one of the top-tier divisions of the National Collegiate Athletic Association , between 2011 and 2014 . In his first year at university, he and his team, the Boston College Eagels , first won the Hockey East championship, so that his team qualified for the final tournament of the NCAA, the so-called Frozen Four . In this tournament, Boston College reached first place and thus the championship of the NCAA. Gaudreau himself was elected to the All-Rookie-Team and the Second- All-Star- Team of the Hockey East and honored as the most valuable player of the final tournament of the Hockey East. In the years that followed, the striker was one of the outstanding players in the college league and received numerous awards, culminating in the presentation of the Hobey Baker Memorial Award at the end of the 2013/14 season. The decisive factor for the election, in which he was among the three finalists last year , was a yield of 80 scorer points in 40 games.
After Gaudreau had already been selected in the fourth round in the fourth round of the Calgary Flames from the National Hockey League in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft , the Flames committed their draft election after the end of the college season in April 2014 for three years. He immediately made the jump into the NHL roster and made his debut just days later, in which he scored a goal. At the end of the 2014/15 season he led the rookie scorer list together with Mark Stone with 64 points and was a finalist for the Calder Memorial Trophy , which Aaron Ekblad won. He was also elected to the NHL All-Rookie Team .
The following season, he was named NHL Player of the Month for December when he scored twelve goals and six assists in ten games that month, including two hat-tricks . After the season, he signed a new six-year deal with the Flames in October 2016 that should earn him an average annual salary of $ 6.75 million. At the end of the 2016/17 season he was honored with the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy , which honors players with a high sporting standard. In the 2017/18 season, the winger scored 84 points from 80 games for the first time, a point average of over 1.0 per game at NHL level. He increased this performance again significantly in the following year, recording 99 points in 82 games.
International
Gaudreau represented his home country for the first time at the Ivan Hlinka Memorial Tournament 2010 , where he won the silver medal with the team and was top scorer within the team with five points . It was only more than three years later that the left winger was again a member of the US Ice Hockey Federation . At the U20 Junior World Championship in 2013 he was once again the team's top scorer and with seven goals - a hat trick and three double packs - the top scorer of the tournament, which was crowned with the gold medal.
In the senior category, Gaudreau was part of the squad for the first time at the 2014 World Cup in the Belarusian capital Minsk . In the opening game of the US against the hosts, he contributed three scorer points. A bronze medal with Team USA followed at the 2018 World Cup .
