Logs helper in defeat Gourde posted an assist and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Ducks.

Impact Gourde has two goals and four assists over his last eight games. While he continues to be listed in a bottom-six role, he remains an integral part of the Kraken's overall game plan, and that's even more true when he's chipping in points. For the season, the 32-year-old has two goals, seven helpers, 27 shots on net, 36 hits, 15 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 23 outings.

Fills empty cage Gourde scored an empty-net goal on two shots in Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Predators.

Impact Gourde has been in a groove lately with two goals and two assists over his last five games. He was on the third line again Wednesday -- Shane Wright has been scratched for two games, leading to a shuffle in the Kraken's bottom six. Gourde is up to seven points, 24 shots on net, 30 hits, 30 PIM, 14 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 20 appearances this season. He continues to play a key defensive role, though he can chip in some depth scoring in bursts.

Two points against Isles Gourde scored his first goal of the season and added an assist in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Islanders.

Impact The veteran center was credited with the first tally of the night midway through the first period, when Brandon Tanev's shot deflected in off Gourde as he tries to cause chaos in the crease. It was Gourde's first multi-point performance of the season, and his middle-six role and lack of power-play time has limited his fantasy upside. Through 18 games, he's managed only six points with 30 PIM, 26 hits, 21 shots on net, 13 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating.

Logs assist in Tuesday's win Gourde notched an assist in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Gourde opened the season with three helpers over five games before going cold on offense. His assist Tuesday ended a 10-game slump. The 32-year-old is up to four helpers, 18 shots on net, 25 hits, 30 PIM and a minus-2 rating through 16 contests. He's listed on the Kraken's fourth line but earns more ice time through his work as a defensive specialist.

NOVEMBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Garners helper Thursday Gourde notched an assist and five PIM in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Flyers.

Impact Gourde helped out on a Jordan Eberle tally in the second period. Through five contests, Gourde has contributed three helpers, two shots on net, five hits and 12 PIM -- he's already fought twice this season. The 32-year-old's opportunities on offense could be limited in a fourth-line role, but that's not as much of a problem when the Kraken have scored 20 goals over their five games while getting contributions all over the lineup.

Produces assist Saturday Gourde logged an assist in Saturday's 5-4 shootout win over the Wild.

Impact Gourde helped out on linemate Tye Kartye's third-period tally. After beginning his Seattle career on the third line for three years, Gourde has been bumped down to the fourth line, forming a checking trio with Kartye and Brandon Tanev. Gourde has a helper, one shot on goal, one hit, one blocked shots and seven PIM through two contests this season. He was limited to 33 points in 80 games in 2023-24, and he may struggle to reach that mark without a larger role this year.

OCTOBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Lights lamp twice in finale Gourde scored two goals, one shorthanded and the other the eventual game-winner, in Thursday's 4-3 victory over the Wild.

Impact Both tallies came in the third period, and Gourde's empty-netter with just under two minutes to play ended up being a needed insurance marker. The 32-year-old saw his production take a step backward in 2023-24, managing only 11 goals and 33 points in 80 games, but he set career highs with 156 shots on net and 156 hits and should fill a middle-six role with the Kraken again next season.

Kraken's Yanni Gourde Snipes Short-Handed Goal On Breakaway

APRIL 19, 2024 • YOUTUBE

Goal, assist in loss Gourde scored a goal on four shots, dished an assist, went plus-2 and added three hits in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Jets.

Impact Gourde snapped a 19-game goal drought by tipping in a Ryker Evans shot in the second period. Gourde also fed Tye Kartye for a game-tying tally late in the frame. This was Gourde's first multi-point effort since Jan. 13. He's had a down year with nine goals, 31 points, 154 shots on net, 156 hits, 62 PIM and a minus-13 rating over 79 appearances. The 32-year-old is under contract for one more season, so he's likely to be the Kraken's third-line center again in 2024-25.

APRIL 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Hands out helper Gourde provided an assist and added five hits in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Coyotes.

Impact Gourde has picked up the pace with three assists over his last six contests. He put a pass in Brandon Tanev's wheelhouse for the Kraken's fourth goal Tuesday.

Impact Gourde has two helpers over his last four games, which followed a recent run of six scoreless outings. The 32-year-old helped out on a Brian Dumoulin tally in the third period. Gourde is up to eight goals, 20 assists, 140 shots on net, 140 hits, 62 PIM and a minus-11 rating through 73 contests. He was dropped to the fourth line Wednesday, though his defensive usage keeps his ice time from falling too far.

APRIL 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Gathers helper Gourde notched an assist, three shots on goal and three hits in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.

Impact Gourde snapped a six-game slump when he set up Tye Kartye's game-winning tally in the third period. The 32-year-old Gourde has endured a rough season with just 27 points over 70 outings. He's added 137 shots on net, 138 hits, 60 PIM and a minus-12 rating while seeing key defensive minutes for the Kraken. Gourde is at risk of missing the 30-point mark for the first time since he became a full-time NHLer in 2017-18.

MARCH 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Chips in with power-play assist Gourde notched a power-play assist and two hits in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Capitals.

Impact Gourde has a point in four of the last five contests (one goal, three assists). This was his second power-play point of the campaign -- he is not always in the mix to play with the man advantage. Gourde is up to 26 points, 128 shots on net, 118 hits, 56 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 63 outings. Despite his third-line role at even strength, the 32-year-old remains one of the Kraken's most important forwards on the ice, even though that doesn't always translate into offense or fantasy value.

MARCH 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Deals helper in overtime loss Gourde notched an assist and three hits in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact Gourde helped out on an Oliver Bjorkstrand goal in the third period. The helper was Gourde's third point over five games in March, already surpassing his point total from all of February. The 32-year-old forward is up to 25 points, 127 shots on net, 116 hits, 56 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 62 appearances. He continues to play a key defensive role on the Kraken's third line.

MARCH 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Pockets assist Tuesday Gourde notched an assist, three hits, four blocked shots and two PIM in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Jets.

Impact Gourde has four points over his last eight games, emerging from a notable slump in the early half of February. The 32-year-old continues to center the Kraken's third line while playing important defensive minutes for the team. His offense has diminished this year with 24 points over 60 outings, but he's added solid non-scoring production -- 124 shots on goal, 110 hits, 56 PIM -- to maintain some value in deeper fantasy formats.

MARCH 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ends goal drought Gourde scored a goal in Monday's 4-2 win over the Flames.

Impact Gourde opened the scoring at 4:04 of the first period. The tally was his first since Jan. 9, a span of 18 games in which he mustered just six assists. The 32-year-old has not been as reliable as usual in 2023-24 with just eight goals, 23 points, 124 shots on net, 107 hits, 54 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 59 appearances. Despite the scoring struggles, Gourde's spot on the third line is not in jeopardy.

MARCH 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Produces helper Monday Gourde notched an assist and two hits in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Bruins.

Impact Gourde has two helpers over his last four games. The 32-year-old has struggled to get his offense going since his two-game suspension in January -- he has three assists over 11 outings since he returned. He's still in a third-line role as usual, racking up 22 points, 118 shots on net, 101 hits, 54 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 56 contests. Without more offense, Gourde's usefulness is limited to deeper fantasy formats that reward his physical play.

FEBRUARY 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ends slump with assist Gourde notched an assist, six shots on goal and three blocked shots in Monday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Red Wings.

Impact Gourde snapped a six-game slump with his helper on a Jaden Schwartz tally in the third period. The 32-year-old Gourde has endured a down year on offense with 21 points, 113 shots on net, 93 hits, 52 PIM and a minus-4 rating through 53 appearances. He'd need a massive surge to get back to the 48-point mark he posted in his first two years with the Kraken, and that's unlikely to happen with him firmly in a third-line role.

FEBRUARY 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Grabs helper in return Gourde logged an assist and two shots on goal in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blues.

Impact Gourde returned from a two-game suspension and went right back into his third-line role. That trio combined on the Kraken's third goal, with Oliver Bjorkstrand stealing the puck and Gourde finding Eeli Tolvanen for the tally. Gourde is up to 20 points, 99 shots on net, 66 hits, 48 PIM and a minus-4 rating through 46 contests.

JANUARY 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returning from suspension Friday Gourde will return for Friday's game against St. Louis after completing his two-game suspension for charging Edmonton's Mattias Ekholm on Jan. 18.

Impact Gourde has seven goals, 19 points, 48 PIM, 65 hits and 21 blocks in 45 contests this season. He's projected to play on the third line alongside Oliver Bjorkstrand. The third member of that unit is still to be determined because Jaden Schwartz (undisclosed) and Eeli Tolvanen (undisclosed) are both game-time calls.

Suspended two games Gourde received a two-game suspension for charging Edmonton's Mattias Ekholm.

Impact Gourde will miss games against Toronto and Chicago and will be eligible to return Jan. 26 against the Blues. The 32-year-old has just 19 points in 45 games this season but seven over his last nine appearances. Devin Shore could get back in the lineup while Gourde is out.
