Yanni Gourde - NHL News & Rumors

Lands on non-roster list Gourde (hip) was placed on the injured non-roster list Monday.

Impact Gourde won't be available to play until at least December after having offseason hip surgery. He contributed 19 assists, 28 points, 114 shots on net, 115 hits and 66 PIM in 82 regular-season games with Tampa Bay in 2025-26.

Ruled out until December Gourde underwent offseason hip surgery and will not be available until December, Lightning reporter Gabby Shirley reports Wednesday.

Impact Gourde played in all 82 regular-season games last year, generating nine goals and 19 helpers and missing the 30-point threshold for the first time since 2026-17. With Dominic James (hand) also unavailable to start the season, the Bolts suddenly find themselves thin at center, which could create an opportunity for Jansen Harkins. Look for Gourde to start the year on long-term injured reserve, though the move may not become official immediately.

Chips in with assist Wednesday Gourde posted an assist in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Canadiens in Game 5.

Impact Gourde snapped an 11-game point drought with the helper on a Dominic James tally in the second period. The 34-year-old Gourde has maintained his place as a defensive forward in the middle six, but the lack of depth scoring is tough for the Lightning to see now that their season is on the brink. Gourde had 28 points over 82 regular-season contests, and prior to this playoff run, he earned 43 points across 88 postseason outings.

Lights lamp Thursday Gourde scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Canucks.

Impact Gourde has scored twice over the last three games.

Gourde is up to nine goals, 25 points, 95 shots on net, 92 hits, 58 PIM, 25 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating across 67 appearances.
