The deal is reportedly worth $40.5 million, according to TSN's Bob McKenzie.
"I have decided to re-sign with the Calgary Flames. As I have always said, I just want to play hockey," Gaudreau said. "I want to be there for my teammates and for the fans of Calgary."
Gaudreau, 23, appeared in 79 games with the Flames last season, leading the team in scoring with 78 points.
