• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Deals assist in loss

  Rotowire Apr 12, 2025

  Gaudreau notched an assist and two hits in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Flames. Gaudreau set up a Gustav Nyquist goal with 1:30 left in the third period. The 31-year-old Gaudreau has contributed assists in consecutive contests and has five points over his last eight outings. For the season, the center is up to 37 points, 107 shots on net, 43 hits, 61 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 80 appearances. He's been a consistent depth scorer in a middle-six role, though occupying a position as deep as center, he hasn't been all that noticeable in fantasy.

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Offers helper in overtime win

  Rotowire Apr 10, 2025

  Gaudreau provided an assist, two blocked shots and a minus-2 rating in Wednesday's 8-7 overtime win over the Sharks. Gaudreau and the Wild's new-look third line factored on the team's first goal, as the center set up Marcus Johansson to tie the game at 1-1 in the first period. Over the last six games, Gaudreau has been limited to two assists. He's produced 36 points, 107 shots on net, 61 blocked shots, 41 hits and a minus-2 rating over 79 contests this season, but his role is likely to be reduced now that the team is healthy at forward.

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Scores pair of goals Thursday

  Rotowire Mar 28, 2025

  Gaudreau scored two goals, one on the power play, on five shots and blocked two shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over Washington. Gaudreau capitalized on a power play in the second period and on an empty net in the third to tally his two twine finders Thursday. The 31-year-old center is up to 18 goals, 34 points and 103 shots on net in 73 outings this season. Gaudreau has been a steady goal scorer over the past month with seven goals and nine points in his last 15 games. Due to Joel Eriksson Ek's lower-body injury, Gaudreau has occupied a role centering Minnesota's second line and a spot on the top power-play unit. There are more factors helping Gaudreau's viability than hurting it, as his current goal-scoring momentum makes him a great player to own in all deeper leagues while Minnesota attempts to secure a spot in the postseason.

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Puts away empty-netter

  Rotowire Mar 23, 2025

  Gaudreau scored an empty-net goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Sabres. Gaudreau's tally prevented any late comeback effort from the Sabres. The 31-year-old center has four goals and two assists over 10 contests in March while regularly playing on the second line. He's at 16 goals, 32 points, 96 shots on net, 50 blocked shots, 36 hits and a plus-5 rating over 70 appearances. A late-season scoring binge could help him get to the 20-goal mark for the first time in his career, and a 40-point campaign, while unlikely, isn't out of the question either.

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Posts assist Wednesday

  Rotowire Mar 20, 2025

  Gaudreau recorded an assist in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Kraken. Gaudreau has slowed down on offense with just a goal and an assist over his last seven outings. He had put up six points across the seven games before that from Feb. 8 to March 4. The 31-year-old continues to center the second line as the Wild are missing Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body), and Gaudreau could get another bump in minutes if Marco Rossi (lower body) misses additional time after leaving Wednesday's game early. Overall, Gaudreau is up to 31 points, 94 shots on net, 50 blocked shots, 36 hits and a plus-4 rating over 69 appearances.

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Nets power-play equalizer

  Rotowire Mar 14, 2025

  Gaudreau scored a power-play goal in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Rangers. Gaudreau's tally in the third period tied the game at 2-2, and it was enough to force the extra session. The center had gone three contests without a point, but that followed a stretch of four goals and two assists over seven outings. For the season, he's been a decent depth scorer with 15 goals, 30 points, 91 shots on net and a plus-4 rating over 66 appearances. That's double his point total from 67 games in 2023-24, but he's unlikely to end up anywhere near his career-high 44 points from 2021-22.

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Puts up two points in win

  Rotowire Mar 5, 2025

  Gaudreau scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Kraken. Gaudreau stretched the Wild's lead to 3-1 early in the second period and then helped out on a Mats Zuccarello tally later in the frame. Those two forwards have formed an effective line with Marcus Johansson over recent games. Gaudreau has earned four goals and two assists across his last seven outings, and he's up to 29 points, 87 shots on net and a plus-5 rating through 62 contests overall.

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Nets game-winning goal

  Rotowire Mar 3, 2025

  Gaudreau scored the lone goal of Sunday's 1-0 win over the Bruins. Gaudreau lit the lamp for game-winning tally by redirecting a shot from Marcus Johansson. The 31-year-old Gaudreau is up to 13 goals, 27 points and 84 shots on net in 61 appearances this season. With injuries to Kirill Kaprizov (lower body) and Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body), Gaudreau has jumped up to Minnesota's second power-play unit. The third-line center has scored three goals in his past six games. With less forwards available and his momentum offensively, Gaudreau has some value in deeper leagues for the time being.

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Pots goal in Saturday's win

  Rotowire Feb 9, 2025

  Gaudreau netted a power-play goal on two shots and went plus-1 in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Islanders. Gaudreau's tally was a fortunate one, as his shot was headed wide of the target before it careened off Tony DeAngelo into the back of the net. This was Gaudreau's third power-play marker of the season, matching his career high. Through 56 appearances this season, the Quebec native has chipped in 11 goals and 24 points while filling a middle-six role in addition to a spot on the No. 2 power-play unit. Gaudreau is currently converting at the best rate of his career with a 14.5 shooting percentage.

  Rotowire Jan 30, 2025

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Provides assist Wednesday

  Rotowire Jan 30, 2025

  Gaudreau logged an assist in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Maple Leafs. Gaudreau has two goals and two assists over his last five appearances. The 31-year-old center has had a couple of good stretches this season, so he may be worth considering as a short-term addition to fill out a fantasy roster's depth. He's produced 21 points, 68 shots on net, 31 blocked shots, 28 hits and a minus-1 rating over 51 outings in 2024-25.

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Scores again Sunday

  Rotowire Jan 26, 2025

  Gaudreau scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks. Gaudreau scored for the second game in a row, and he also earned a plus rating for just the second time in six contests. The center's first-period tally put the Wild ahead 2-0 as they controlled play early Sunday. Gaudreau has 20 points (nine goals, 11 assists) over 50 appearances this season, returning to that threshold after missing out with a 15-point campaign in 2023-24. Still, his limited non-scoring production from a third-line role means Gaudreau isn't a particularly strong option for fantasy managers.

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Puts away power-play goal

  Rotowire Jan 26, 2025

  Gaudreau scored a power-play goal on three shots, blocked two shots and went minus-2 in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Flames. Gaudreau had been limited to two assists over his last 11 contests since he scored Dec. 29 against the Senators. The 31-year-old center has played in a third-line role lately, which isn't a spot to help his offense take off, though he's also on the second power-play unit. For the season, Gaudreau has eight goals (two on the power play), 19 points, 66 shots on net, 31 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 49 appearances.

  Rotowire Jan 21, 2025

  Gaudreau recorded an assist and went plus-3 in Monday's 3-1 win over the Avalanche. Gaudreau helped out on a Jake Middleton tally in the first period. The Wild's third line contributed on all three goals, a rarity for a team that tends to lean heavily on its top players with few depth-scoring contributions. This helper ended a four-game slump for Gaudreau, who now has 18 points, 62 shots on net, 29 blocked shots, 25 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 47 appearances.

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Garners helper in loss

  Rotowire Jan 10, 2025

  Gaudreau logged an assist in Thursday's 6-1 loss to the Avalanche. Gaudreau had been limited to three goals and one assist over 18 games since the start of December. The 31-year-old has maintained a steady spot on the third line, but the Wild's offense is often dominated by the top six. Gaudreau now has 17 points through 42 contests, two more than he had in 67 outings a year ago. He's added 61 shots on net, 23 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating.

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Scores in loss versus Ottawa

  Rotowire Dec 30, 2024

  Gaudreau scored a goal in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Senators. Gaudreau scored the opening goal in the latter stages of the first period, but the Wild gave up three unanswered goals the rest of the way, meaning they couldn't extend their winning streak to three games. Gaudreau at least managed to snap his point drought, though, as this goal was the first time he cracked the scoresheet since netting a power-play goal in a 7-1 loss to the Oilers on Dec. 12.

  Rotowire Dec 13, 2024

Gaudreau found the back of the net on the power play for the first time this season, but that was all the offense the Wild could muster in this contest.

• Wild's Frederick Gaudreau: Contributes helper in overtime win

  Rotowire Dec 1, 2024

  Gaudreau notched an assist in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators. Gaudreau won a faceoff straight to Declan Chisholm, who fired in the opening goal at 18:57 of the first period. The helper snapped a four-game slump for Gaudreau, his longest since he opened the season with no points over eight games. The center is up to four goals, nine assists, 34 shots on net, 15 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating over 23 appearances. He'll likely continue to fill a bottom-six role, though he's proven he can chip in depth scoring. Gaudreau had 44 points in 2021-22 and 38 points in 2022-23 before dipping to 15 points last season, so it appears he's correcting course in a positive manner this year.
