In Sunday’s decisive Game 7, Seattle defeated Colorado by a score of 2-1, and Gourde was credited with two assists.
Gourde has completed the first round of the playoffs with one goal and six points after participating in all seven games. The 31-year-old forward is one of the Kraken’s most experienced forwards when it comes to the postseason, since he was a member of the Lightning during their runs to win the Stanley Cup in 2020 and 2021.
He has been with the Kraken since the team’s inception in 2022. Gourde has scored 17 goals and recorded 35 points over his career’s 76 postseason matches.
