Cody Hodgson (born February 18, 1990 in Toronto , Ontario ) is a retired Canadian ice hockey player .

Career

Cody Hodgson began his career as a hockey player in the Ontario Provincial Junior A Hockey League , in which he was active from 2004 to 2006 for the Markham Waxers. He was then selected by the Brampton Battalion , for which he played in the Canadian Junior League Ontario Hockey League from 2006 to 2010 , in the OHL Priority Selection . After being selected in the first round of the 2008 NHL Entry Draft as the tenth overall player by the Vancouver Canucks , he made his senior debut in the playoffs of the 2008-09 season for Vancouver's farm team , the Manitoba Moose from the American Hockey League ( AHL). For this he scored two goals in eleven games and prepared another four. For the following season, the Canadian initially returned to Brampton in the OHL, as he suffered a serious back injury in the summer that put him out of action by the end of the year. For the 2010/11 season he was definitely included in the AHL squad of the Manitoba Moose.

Shortly before the trade deadline on February 27, 2012, Hodgson and German defender Alexander Sulzer were swapped for striker Zack Kassian and defender Marc-André Gragnani for the Buffalo Sabers . After almost three years in Buffalo, his contract there was not renewed, so he joined the Nashville Predators as a free agent in July 2015 .

In Nashville, the attacker had eight scorer points in 39 games by January 2016, so he was sent to the AHL farm team of the Predators, the Milwaukee Admirals . There Hodgson ended the season and was not given a continuing contract, so that he surprisingly announced the end of his active career in October 2016 in order to be active in the Predators' junior division.

International

For Canada , Hodgson took part in the U18 World Junior Championship in 2008 and the U20 World Junior Championship in 2009 . Both times he won the gold medal, was the top scorer and the best assist giver of the tournament. In 2009 he was also elected to the All-Star Team .

He made his debut for the senior national team in his home country at the 2014 World Cup , where he finished fifth with the team.
