OTTAWA, ON - Ottawa Senators general manager Steve Staois announced this past Saturday that the club has signed forward Xavier Bourgault to a one-year, two-way National Hockey League contract for the 2025-26 season.

Bourgault, 22, appeared in 61 games for the Senators' American Hockey League affiliate in Belleville in 2024-25, his first full season with the organization after signing a one-year, two-way NHL deal in 2024-25.

Before turning pro, the L'Islet, Quebec native played 197 games over four seasons in the QMJHL with Shawinigan Cataractes, notching 206 points (96 goals, 110 assists), and winning a QMJHL title in 2021-22. Bourgault has also represented Canada at the World Under-17 Hockey Challenge.
