On April 2, 2013 his NHL rights were traded to the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for Philippe Paradis. [2] He was also a first round selection in the 2009 KHL Junior Draft.

[4]

After two seasons with the IceHogs, Gotovets left as a free agent to sign a one-year deal to return to Belarus with HC Dinamo Minsk of the Kontinental Hockey League on July 28, 2016. [5] In the ensuing 2016-17 season, Gotovets added to the depth in the blueline, appearing in 24 games for 5 points.

On July 10, 2017, Gotovets opted to return to North America, agreeing to a one-year AHL contract with Canadian-based club, the Manitoba Moose, affiliate of the Winnipeg Jets. [6] In the 2017-18 season, Gotovets secured a regular role on the blueline, appearing in 57 games and posting 13 points.

On May 28, 2018, Gotovets as a free agent opted to return to hometown club, HC Dinamo Minsk of the KHL, on a two-year contract. [7]

After the conclusion of his contract with Dinamo, Gotovets continued in the KHL, moving to Russian club, Avangard Omsk, on a one-year contract on 12 May 2020. [8]

Gotovets played two seasons with Avangard Omsk, claiming the Gagarin Cup in 2021, before leaving the club as a free agent and signing a two-year contract with HC Dynamo Moscow on 2 May 2022. [9]
