Gaudrea will return to the lineup for Thursday's matchup with San Jose, Sportsnet's Roger Millions reports.
Analysis:
Gaudreau was a healthy scratch for Tuesday's matchup with Toronto due to disciplinary reasons, but has apparently managed to climb out of head coach Bob Hartley's doghouse ahead of Thursday's tilt. The Flames and fantasy owners alike will welcome the talented young winger back into their lineups with open arms, as he's been fantastic this season, racking up 49 points (21 goals, 28 assists) in 51 games. Gaudrea will slot back into the lineup as a top-six forward against the Sharks.
