Trudeau (upper body) was placed on injured reserve and is considered week-to-week, the team announced Friday.
Trudeau has no points, two shots, three hits and two blocks in three outings this season. He exited Thursday's 5-2 win over Montreal because of the injury. Jack Ahcan, who has been a healthy scratch in two of Nashville's four games, is likely to play more regularly while Trudeau is on the shelf.

Trudeau (upper body) won't finish Thursday's game versus the Canadiens.
Trudeau, a former Canadiens prospect, was hurt in the first period of Thursday's game against his former team. The 23-year-old defenseman was playing in his third career NHL contest and has been gaining momentum on Nashville's blue line. Trudeau can be considered day-to-day for now, and if he misses time, Jack Ahcan would likely get back into the lineup.

Trudeau was claimed off waivers by Nashville on Saturday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
After the Rangers waived Trudeau on Friday, the Predators took notice and scooped up the 23-year-old blueliner. He spent the entirety of the 2025-26 campaign with AHL Laval, where he compiled eight goals, 20 points and 54 PIM across 62 regular-season outings. With the Predators claiming the young blueliner, Trudeau could begin the 2026-27 campaign in the NHL.

Trudeau was put on waivers by the Rangers on Friday, per Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.
Trudeau had eight goals, 20 points and 54 PIM in 62 regular-season appearances with AHL Laval in 2025-26. The 23-year-old defenseman has participated in four AHL campaigns, but he hasn't made his NHL debut.

Trudeau signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Rangers on Monday, Vince Z. Mercogliano of The Athletic reports.
Trudeau was traded to the Rangers from the Canadiens on June 26, and he reached an agreement on a two-way deal with his new club just over a week later. He's spent the past four seasons with AHL Laval, and it seems likely that he'll spend most of his time in the minors once again during the 2026-27 campaign.

Trudeau was traded to the Rangers from the Canadiens on Friday in exchange for Brett Berard, Pierre LeBrun of TSN reports.
Trudeau has played exclusively for AHL Laval over the past four seasons, most recently recording eight goals, 12 assists and 54 PIM across 62 regular-season appearances during the 2025-26 campaign. He'll get a change of scenery ahead of the 2026-27 season, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him spend most, or all, of his time in the minors once again.
