Shoudy, 24, spent the last four seasons at Michigan State University where he played alongside recent Penguins signee Daniel Russell. This year, Shoudy produced career-highs in assists (13) and points (20) while appearing in 37 games for the Spartans.

In his four-year collegiate career, Shoudy produced 25 goals and 40 assists for 65 points in 150 games. He did not miss a single game across his four years with the Spartans, and he helped the team take home a pair of Big Ten Championships in 2024 and 2025.

Prior to college, Shoudy played in the United States Hockey League for parts of three seasons. In 105 games with the Des Moines Buccaneers and Youngstown Phantoms, the Marysville, Michigan native logged 49 points (16G-33A). He also played one season in the North American Hockey League for the Austin Bruins, producing 34 points (11G-23A) in 51 games to earn a spot on the 2019-20 NAHL All-Rookie Second Team.

Shoudy is reporting to the Penguins' ECHL affiliate, the Wheeling Nailers, for the rest of the 2025-26 season.
