| Date | News | Advice |
|---|---|---|
| Oct. 9, 2026 | 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. | None |
| Oct. 8, 2026 | 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. | None |
| Sept. 26, 2026 | 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 and 54 PIM across 62 regular-season outings. With the Predators claiming the young blueliner, Trudeau is likely set to begin the year with AHL Milwaukee. | None |
| Sept. 25, 2026 | 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. | None |
| July 6, 2026 | 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. | None |
| June 26, 2026 | 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. | None |
| Dec. 27, 2025 | Trudeau scored a goal and added an assist in AHL Laval's 4-3 shootout win over Syracuse on Saturday. - Trudeau picked up his second multi-point effort of the season. He's done a decent job this year with four goals and seven assists after having his season debut delayed by an undisclosed injury. He's still within range of challenging his career-best 27-point output from 2022-23. | None |
| Oct. 30, 2025 | Trudeau was placed on waivers Thursday, - The Canadiens put Trudeau on waivers as they want to loan him to AHL Laval. Trudeau has yet to play in 2025-26 as he has been rehabbing an undisclosed injury since training camp. | None |
| Sept. 23, 2025 | Trudeau (undisclosed) won't draw into the lineup for Tuesday's home preseason meeting with the Flyers, per Marc Antoine Godin of Radio-Canada. - It was reported Thursday that Trudeau was rehabbing a "small" undisclosed injury, but he's not yet healthy enough to compete in a game. It's unclear if the 22-year-old has been able to participate in practice since the start of training camp. | None |
| Sept. 18, 2025 | Trudeau won't practice Thursday due to a minor undisclosed injury, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports. - Trudeau was going to face an uphill battle to secure a roster spot for Opening Night, so any setbacks aren't going to do him any favors. At this point, fantasy managers should probably expect Trudeau to play the bulk of his games in the minors, though he could get a chance to make his NHL debut at some point. | None |
| July 3, 2025 | Trudeau agreed to terms on a one-year, two-way contract with Montreal on Thursday. - Trudeau has yet to make his NHL debut after being traded by the Habs in the fourth round of the 2021 NHL Draft. Last season, the 22-year-old blueliner notched five goals and 14 assists in 68 regular-season tilts, adding another three helpers in eight playoff games. Given the number of defensemen in the Habs' system right now, Trudeau is unlikely to see much NHL time this year. | None |
| Oct. 7, 2024 | Trudeau was reassigned to AHL Laval on Monday. - Trudeau produced eight goals, 16 assists and 69 PIM in 70 regular-season contests for Montreal's top minor-league affiliate in 2023-24. The 21-year-old defender doesn't have any NHL experience yet, and he will likely spend most, if not all, of the 2024-25 campaign in the minors. | None |
| Oct. 5, 2024 | Trudeau was promoted by Montreal on Saturday. - Trudeau had eight goals, 24 points and 69 PIM in 70 regular-season contests with AHL Laval in 2023-24. He was likely summoned for Saturday's preseason game against Ottawa and will probably be reassigned to the minors before the start of the regular season. | None |
| Oct. 14, 2022 | Trudeau signed a three-year, entry-level contract with Montreal on Friday. - Trudeau can make $750,000 annually in the NHL, $80,000 per season in the AHL, or $10,500 for each campaign at the Junior level. He also received a $92,500 signing bonus. Montreal took him at No. 113 of the 2021 draft. He had eight goals and 44 points in 68 QMJHL games last season. | None |
