On August 12, 2014, Bordson signed a contract with the Chicago Wolves.[7]
On September 14, 2015, Bordson signed as a free agent, returning to the ECHL for the first time since 2011, in agreeing to a deal with the Adirondack Thunder for their inaugural season.[8] He was elected captain to start the 2015–16 season, and was named the player of the month for October in leading the ECHL in all offensive categories.[9]With 13 points in 7 games Bordson returned to the AHL on November 6, 2015, signing a one-year contract with the Providence Bruins.[10]
