The Predators wasted little time signing one of their key offseason acquisitions Jack Drury<\/a> to a five-year deal recently.\u00a0 They\u2019ve now signed the other player acquired in that trade as well.\u00a0 The team announced<\/a> that they\u2019ve signed forward Chase Bradley<\/a> to a two-year, two-way contract.\u00a0 The deal will carry an AAV of $875K in the NHL, per PuckPedia<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old was a seventh-round pick by Detroit back in 2020 but didn\u2019t sign with them.\u00a0 Instead, Bradley spent three seasons at UConn and then turned pro for the 2024-25 campaign, signing with Colorado.\u00a0 He spent most of his rookie season in the minors but he did get into a pair of games with the Avs but was held off the scoresheet.<\/p>\n

Bradley didn\u2019t get a chance to add to his NHL games played total last season as he was exclusively in the minors with AHL Colorado.\u00a0 He didn\u2019t have the most successful of years either, recording just nine goals and three assists in 42 games during the regular season.\u00a0 However, Bradley was more successful in the playoffs, notching five goals and five helpers in 17 contests which was likely enough to get him included in the Drury trade and this two-year look from Nashville.<\/p>\n

Bradley has one year of waiver exemption remaining and it\u2019s likely he\u2019ll start the season with AHL Milwaukee with the hopes of earning a recall from there.\u00a0 With his signing, Nashville now has just two remaining restricted free agents, recent acquisition Mavrik Bourque<\/a> and defenseman Justin Barron<\/a>.\u00a0 Both players are arbitration-eligible with the filing deadline being on Sunday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Predators wasted little time signing one of their key offseason acquisitions Jack Drury to a five-year deal…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":593350,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[377],"tags":[29483,5,231,405],"class_list":["post-614463","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-hockey","tag-chase-bradley","tag-hockey","tag-nashville-predators","tag-transactions"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/116861664187865998","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/614463","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=614463"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/614463\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/593350"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=614463"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=614463"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=614463"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
