Multiple reports say the Predators send Colorado two third-round selections to complete the transaction. One report specifies the picks are for 2026 and 2027. In addition to Colton, Nashville’s new front-office executive Chris MacFarland—recently hired by the Predators after leaving Colorado—agrees to a player swap involving a goaltender.

Another account also mentions Nashville sending goalie Isak Posch as part of the package.

Overall, the sources agree that Colton changes teams from Colorado to Nashville, the deal includes third-round draft picks, and a goalie exchange is part of the compensation.
