Goyette scored a goal on five shots and added an assist in AHL Coachella Valley's 4-2 win over Tucson on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Goyette, a second-round pick in 2022, has started slow in the AHL this year. The 21-year-old has four points over 10 games, and that's not particularly encouraging after he put up just 18 points in 54 regular-season outings in 2024-25. He impressed during his OHL days with Sudbury, but the offense hasn't translated to the professional ranks yet. Expect him to spend all of 2025-26 with the Firebirds.

Goyette was selected 61st overall by the Kraken in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Goyette led all OHL rookies in both goals (33) and points (73) this past season. Part of that was undoubtedly due to the fact he played on a team who managed to post just 23 wins in 68 games, but Goyette is a talented offensive player. He also managed to be just a minus-six despite the fact Sudbury gave up 74 more goals than they scored. He can really wheel with the puck and skates well enough to push back opposing defenders and make plays off the rush. Goyette can make very difficult plays seem extremely easy and has the look of a player who will dominate the OHL in terms of production the next couple years. He could serve to use his teammates a big more at times, but that's not all that uncommon at this age. Goyette's talent is worth betting on at this stage of the draft.
