Montreal traded defenceman Jayden Struble to the Nashville Predators for a second-round pick in the 2027 NHL draft. Struble, 25, played four seasons with Montreal, appearing in 174 games and scoring seven goals and 28 assists while accumulating 167 penalty minutes. He signed a two-year contract extension worth $2.825 million ($1.4125 million AAV) before this season but found limited playing time due to depth on Montreal's left-side blue line.

Story summary
On October 9, 2026, the Montreal Canadiens traded defenceman Jayden Struble to the Nashville Predators in exchange for a second-round pick in the 2027 NHL draft. Struble, 25, had signed a two-year contract extension with Montreal worth $2.825 million ($1.4125 million AAV) but was no longer a key player due to a crowded left-side defence. He played 174 games for the Canadiens over four seasons, scoring seven goals and 28 assists while accumulating 167 penalty minutes. Struble had been selected by Montreal in the second round (46th overall) of the 2019 NHL Draft.
