VANCOUVER – The Vancouver Canucks traded depth defenceman Mark Friedman to the Nashville Predators for future considerations Friday.

The 29-year-old played five NHL games with Vancouver this season to go along with 20 appearances for the club’s American Hockey League affiliate in Abbotsford, B.C.

Selected in the third round of the 2014 NHL draft by the Philadelphia Flyers, Friedman has 13 points (four goals, nine assists) across 93 career regular-season contests.

The Canucks originally acquired Friedman from the Pittsburgh Penguins as part of a four-player trade in October 2023.
