Glenn Gawdin had a heck of a 2017-18 season. The 2016-17 year ended with his Swift Current Broncos losing in the second round of the playoffs, Gawdin going unsigned by the St. Louis Blues and then going unclaimed in the 2017 NHL Draft.
But his following season saw his fortunes radically swing the other way: he had an offensive explosion, he got signed by the Calgary Flames, and the Broncos won the Western Hockey League Championship with Gawdin as captain. He heads into his pro years as one of the Flames’ most interesting prospects.
