Predators Recall Spencer Stastney from Milwaukee (AHL)

Nashville, Tenn. (April 1, 2023) - Nashville Predators President of Hockey Operations/General Manager David Poile announced today that the team has recalled defenseman Spencer Stastney from Milwaukee (AHL).
Stastney, 23 (1/4/00), has recorded 13 points (5g-8a) and a +2 rating in 56 games for the Admirals this season, his first full AHL campaign. His five goals are the third-most among Milwaukee defensemen, and he enters Saturday with three points (2g-1a) and seven shots on goal in his last eight contests, including his first career game-winning goal on March 4 at Texas. The 6-foot, 184-pound blueliner made his professional debut with the Admirals at the tail end of last season, appearing in two games.

Originally drafted by Nashville in the fifth round (131st overall) of the 2018 NHL Draft, Stastney spent four seasons at the University of Notre Dame prior to turning pro, posting 63 points (16g-47a) in 143 games from 2018-22. He earned multiple honors while with the Fighting Irish, including a Second Team All-Big Ten nod in 2020-21 and a spot on the 2019 Big Ten All-Tournament Team. As a senior, Stastney was named a finalist for the 2022 Senior CLASS Award, which is awarded annually to a men's hockey student-athlete who has notable achievements in four areas of excellence: community, classroom, character and competition. Internationally, the Woodbridge, Ill., native represented his country at the 2020 World Junior Championship and took home a silver at the 2018 U-18 World Championship; he also spent two seasons skating for USA Hockey's National Team Development Program from 2016-18.
