November 2023 – Most of the time, it’s a tough transition from youth league to the NCAA. The game is faster and more physical but Bradly Nadeau has made a surprisingly quick adjustment to his game that you can see when he plays for the University of Maine. His 8 points in 6 games leads the Black Bears, while his 5 goals puts him tied for 5th in the entire NCAA and the lead on his team. Nadeau’s shot has helped him get to the top of the Maine lineup and continues to only get better, improving his NHL outlook by the game. Nadeau is still at least 2 years away but his scoring this early into his freshman year is a great sign for his future. Nick Bass

 

June 2023 – Nadeau has been selected 30th overall by the Carolina Hurricanes in the 2023 NHL Draft. Curtis Rines

 

January 2023 – Nadeau is a well-rounded center playing on a dominant Penticton Vees team. His greatest strength is his offensive awareness, he knows how to dissect BCHL defences better than any other player in the league. He supports this ability by constantly surveying the ice for teammates and opponents, as well as lanes to exploit. He is a fairly diverse passer, able to change angles to access different lanes and to get pucks through defences. His shooting mechanics, handling skill, and skating all project as about average NHL tools which somewhat limits his ceiling. While he likely doesn’t have a top-six ceiling, he could develop into a versatile and skilled bottom-six pivot. Sebastian High
