Neil Brady (born April 12, 1968 in Montreal, Quebec) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey player. Brady was drafted third overall by the New Jersey Devils in the 1986 NHL Entry Draft, but the centreman spent more time in the minor leagues than the NHL, never able to match his performances with the Medicine Hat Tigers of the Western Hockey League. After just 29 games in 3 seasons, Brady was traded to expansion team the Ottawa Senators on September 3, 1992. Brady scored the first goal for the modern-day Ottawa Senators franchise. He went on to score 7 goals and 17 assists for 24 points, it was nowhere near the standards he set at junior level. He played 5 more games for the Dallas Stars before ending his NHL career, in total Brady played 89 games, scoring 9 goals and 22 assists for 31 points and clocking up 95 penalty minutes. Brady spent the remainder of his career in the now-defunct International Hockey League. He retired in 2001 after the league folded.
