Predators Lock Jack Drury Into Five-Year Deal

Nashville signs center Jack Drury to a five-year, $22.5 million contract after acquiring him from Colorado in a trade that sent two prospects and a 2029 third-round pick in exchange for Drury and forward Chase Bradley; the deal includes no-trade protections in later years (full NTC in 2027-28 and 2028-29, then 8-team NTC for 2029-30 and 2030-31). Drury, who had a career-high 10 goals and 17 assists in 82 games last season with strong faceoffs, strengthens the Predators’ center depth as they manage roughly $20 million in cap space for next season.

Predators land Jack Drury in three-asset swap with Avalanche

Nashville’s new front office orchestrated a multi-asset deal that sends center Jack Drury, Chase Bradley, and a 2029 third-round pick from the Avalanche to the Predators in exchange for Fedor Svechkov and Zachary L’Heureux. Drury, 26, is a reliable two-way center with strong faceoff ability (career 57.1%; 58.1% last season) who posted 10 goals and 27 points in 82 games this past year, and is expected to help bolster Nashville’s middle and future years. Colorado adds the cost-controlled Svechkov and L’Heureux, while Bradley’s addition to Nashville gives them a collegiate-proven forward with potential. The trade reflects Nashville’s emphasis on depth at center and future flexibility under the new management, with Drury likely slated to factor into the 2026-27 plans.
