How did Beckett Sennecke perform in the 2025-26 season?
Sennecke finished the regular season with 23 goals and 37 assists for 60 points, as reported by the Ducks. He co-led all NHL rookies in goals and led the group in even-strength goals with 21.
The Professional Hockey Writers Association conducted the voting for the All-Rookie Team at the end of the season. Sennecke was also named a Calder Memorial Trophy finalist after recording 197 shots and 62 penalty minutes.
He was one of six NHL rookies to appear in all 82 games this season. He is one of only three rookies in Ducks history to achieve this, joining Cutter Gauthier (2024-25) and Dustin Penner (2006-07).
Which Ducks records did Sennecke break or challenge?
Sennecke set a franchise record for the most goals by a teenager in a single season with 18. His 23 total goals tied him for third all-time among Ducks rookies, trailing Bobby Ryan (31) and Dustin Penner (29).
The forward finished just one point shy of Trevor Zegras’ rookie record of 61 points and one assist shy of Zegras’ 38 assists from 2021-22. The Ducks stated that Sennecke is the only player in club history to reach 60 points within two seasons of being drafted.
Sennecke, who was the third overall pick in the 2025 NHL Draft, ranked third on the team in both scoring and goals. He finished fourth among the Ducks in assists.
What notable milestones did Sennecke achieve during the year?
On Jan. 25, Sennecke recorded his first career hat trick during a game at Calgary. This included an overtime winner, making him the third player under 20 in NHL history to achieve that feat.
He also maintained an eight-game point streak from Nov. 17 to Dec. 1, totaling eight points and a +8 rating. The Ducks noted this is the longest point streak by a teenager in team history and ties the rookie record set by Paul Kariya in 1994-95.
How did Sennecke impact the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs?
Sennecke appeared in all 12 of Anaheim’s playoff games, recording five goals and one assist for six points. He co-led the Ducks in postseason goals.
His five goals tied the club rookie record for a single postseason. Between May 6 and May 12, he recorded a four-game goal streak, which the team noted as the longest by any rookie in the playoffs since Auston Matthews in 2017.
What could happen next for the young forward?
Given his current trajectory, Sennecke may attempt to surpass Trevor Zegras’ single-season rookie records in future campaigns. He could potentially become the primary scoring leader for the Ducks as he enters his second full professional season.
Analysts expect he may continue to leverage his 6-3, 206-pound frame to maintain his lead in even-strength production. A possible next step is the pursuit of further franchise records for teenage goal scoring.
