Lore & Background

Goodrow played his junior hockey over five seasons with the Brampton Battalion of the Ontario Hockey League, serving as captain in both the final season in Brampton and the first in North Bay. Although he remained undrafted throughout his years of eligibility, Goodrow was invited to attend the San Jose Sharks' Development Camp and subsequently signed with them. During his tenure with the Sharks, he played with their American Hockey League affiliate, the San Jose Barracuda, and helped them win their first series during the 2017 Calder Cup playoffs. During the 2019–20 season, Goodrow was traded to the Tampa Bay Lightning whom he helped win back-to-back Stanley Cups in 2020 and 2021. On July 17, 2021, with Goodrow approaching free agency, his signing rights were traded by Tampa Bay to the New York Rangers in exchange for a seventh-round pick in the 2022 NHL entry draft. Goodrow was subsequently waived by the Rangers following the 2023–24 season, and was claimed by the Sharks.
