According to a report from Sportsnet NHL insider Elliotte Friedman Tuesday afternoon, the Nashville Predators are trading center Cody Glass to the Pittsburgh Penguins. The teams have yet to confirm the trade, and the return is still unknown.

Glass, who arrived in Nashville via trade from the Vegas Golden Knights in 2021, has one year remaining on his two-year, $5 million contract. His best season came in 2022-23, when he recorded 14 goals and 21 assists in 72 games with the Predators. He failed to build on that success during an injury-riddled 2023-24 season, however, when he managed just 13 points in 41 games.
Trading Glass creates $2.5 million of much-needed salary cap space for the Predators, who went on a spending spree when free agency opened July 1 and signed Steven Stamkos, Jonathan Marchessault, Brady Skjei, among others.
This is a developing story.
