Through his career, Gaudreau scored 243 goals and had 500 assists.
He was killed in August after he and his brother, Matthew, were hit by a suspected drunken driver.

"I'll miss him a lot. He was a great player and great person and obviously was taken away way too soon."
Also named to the team on Saturday were Leon Draisaitl, Nathan MacKinnon, Cale Makar, Auston Matthews, and McDavid.
