Jakub Vrana has officially been claimed off waivers by the Nashville Predators after being placed on waivers by the Washington Capitals.

During his recent stint with the Capitals, Vrana put up 11 points in 26 games, demonstrating significant offensive ability. His noteworthy performances included a high goals-per-60-minutes ranking and impressive shooting percentage, making him a valuable addition to Nashville as they look to improve their competitiveness.
