The teams announced the deal Monday.
Chudley, who hails from Souris, Man., played two seasons in Spokane, recording two assists and in 57 regular season games. Originally a fourth-round WHL Draft pick by the Kootenay ICE in 2016, the 6-foot-3, 185-pound rearguard has appeared in 91 career WHL contests, registering four points.
Meanwhile, the Prince Albert Raiders have acquired 17-year-old forward Hayden Pakkala from the Winnipeg ICE in exchange for a ninth-round pick in the 2021 WHL Prospects Draft.
