Judd Caulfield's story

Drafted 145th overall in 2019, Judd Caulfield moved steadily through the college ranks before turning pro. He committed to North Dakota with a National Letter of Intent on November 20, 2018, and returned there repeatedly to develop his game, electing on March 24, 2023 to take a fifth year with the program.

Caulfield featured immediately at North Dakota. As a freshman in 2019–20 he produced 4 goals and 8 assists in 29 games. His sophomore season yielded 4 goals and 7 assists in 26 games, and his junior year saw him take on a larger offensive role: 11 goals and 9 assists in 39 contests, including a team-leading three short-handed goals. In 2022–23 he posted 10 goals and 9 assists in 39 games.

His professional path shifted at the end of the 2022–23 season. On March 31, 2023 the Pittsburgh Penguins traded his NHL rights to the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for Thimo Nickl. Two days later, on April 2, 2023, Caulfield signed a two-year entry-level contract with the Ducks and joined their AHL affiliate, the San Diego Gulls, on an amateur tryout for the remainder of that season.

In his first full pro campaigns he progressed year by year: 10 goals and 16 assists in 61 games in 2023–24; 11 goals and 14 assists in 67 games in 2024–25; then a career-high 17 goals and 21 assists in 71 games in 2025–26. On July 1, 2026 he signed a two-year, two-way deal with Anaheim and made the Ducks’ opening-night roster for the 2026–27 season.

A right winger by trade, Caulfield is known for consistent offensive instincts and for contributing in transition and on special teams when called upon; his collegiate short-handed scoring and steady professional increases reflect that role.
