Frédéric Allard (born December 27, 1997) is a Canadian professional ice hockey defenceman currently playing for the Milwaukee Admirals in the American Hockey League (AHL) while under contract to the Nashville Predators of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was selected by the Predators in the third-round, 78th overall, in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft.

Playing career[]

Allard played junior hockey for the Chicoutimi Saguenéens of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL).[1][2] After his selection by the Nashville Predators in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft, on September 30, 2016, Allard was signed to a three-year, entry-level contract.[3] Allard skated four seasons for the Chicoutimi Saguenéens, tallying 34 goals and 177 points in 250 games while serving as an alternate captain in his final two campaigns.

Approaching the pandemic delayed 2020–21 season, and entering the final season of his entry-level contract with the Predators, Allard in order to continue playing accepted a European loan to Austrian ICE Hockey League club, EC VSV, on November 19, 2020.[4] Initially assigned to Austria until the commencement of the Predators training camp, Allard having registered 2 goals and 3 points through 11 games was instead placed on waivers in order to continue his tenure with Villacher with the NHL season underway.[5]

Allard placed third among the blueliners with 13 points in 25 games before he was reassigned by the Predators to the Chicago Wolves of the AHL on February 15, 2021.[6] Producing 8 points through his first 7 games with the Wolves, Allard earned his first recall by the Predators on March 11, 2021, providing cover for injuries to star defenceman Roman Josi and Ryan Ellis.[7] He made his NHL debut, playing almost 17 minutes for the Predators in a 6–3 defeat to the defending Stanley Cup champions, the Tampa Bay Lightning, on March 13, 2021.[8]
