Number 21 in your program; number 1 in your heart.

#21, Matt Gaudreau - Forward

Before BC:

Gaudreau played two seasons with the Omaha Lancers of the USHL, putting up 8-14--22 in '12-'13 and 7-11--18 in '13-'14.

Fun facts:

- Contrary to popular belief, his full legal name is not "Matt Gaudreau Brother Of Former Hobey Baker Winner Johnny Gaudreau." In fact, it's "Matt Ryan Gaudreau." Time for a new nickname. "Matty Ice," anyone?

- The last two players to wear the number 21—Matt Gaudreau and Steve Whitney—both played on the same Eagles roster as their older brothers, Johnny and Joe.
