General manager Chris MacFarland bolsters Nashville’s depth, securing the gritty young winger on a two-way deal following his acquisition in a multi-player trade with the Colorado Avalanche.
Chris MacFarland has completed his fifth signing since taking over as the Nashville Predators' new general manager, signing forward Chase Bradley to a two-year, two-way, $1.75 million contract with an $875,000 AAV.
Bradley, a 5-foot-11, 181-pound lefty, was acquired in a trade with the Colorado Avalanche on June 24, also landing center Jack Drury and a 2029 third-round pick for Zachary L'Heureux and Fedor Svechkov
Drury was recently signed to a five-year, $22.5 million contract.
Bradley will more than likely spend the majority of next season with the Milwaukee Admirals, as he played 42 games with the Colorado Eagles this past season, recording 12 points off nine goals and three assists.
He's played in two NHL games over his career, both in the 2024-25 season.
As of Friday, the Predators have yet to sign center Mavrik Borque, who was acquired in a trade with the Dallas Stars alongside Ilya Lyubushkin.
