Born in Red Lake Falls, Minnesota on February 29, 1884, Beaudro moved to the Rat Portage, Ontario area in the early 1890s.

At a young age he developed an interest in ice hockey and by 1896 had joined a team of other local boys, including future Hockey Hall of Famers Tommy Phillips, Si Griffis, Billy McGimsie, and Tom Hooper.

Beaudro scored the game winning, series clinching goal in game two of Kenora's successful Stanley Cup match vs. the Montreal Wanderers in January 1907.

After several years of retirement from 1907 to 1916, Beaudro returned to play for the NHA's Toronto 228th Battalion squad in 1916–17, playing eight games with the team as a defenceman before shipping overseas to fight in World War I.

[4] After a short battle with cancer, Beaudro died on February 10, 1960, in Barrie, Ontario.
