Confirmed with Link: Coghlan to Jets for Future Considerations

[cptjeff]

Potentially making the NHL if the stars align is an upgrade. Winnipeg itself is kind of a love-or-hate kind of place.

I mean, I still think his chances of becoming a regular NHLer are zilch. But they only have 5 NHL D under contract right now (and Logan Stanley outstanding as an RFA), so maybe he somehow lands that open 7D job and looks better in a defensive system that's not ours.

Crash Test Dummies are from Winnipeg

Weakerthans, as well. One of their most popular songs has the lyric “I hate Winnipeg”

Crash Test Dummies are from Winnipeg

That makes me say "Mmm mmm mmm mmm"


Although I'm ashamed to admit it

 

[baconandbread]

Me, Jarvis and the Weakerthans are the best things out of Winnipeg. Anna Paquin, Bob Rock, Burton Cummings and Jonathan Toews are the next tier

Neil Young is up there too

 

[baconandbread]

Neil Young is up there too

For sure, Only didn't include him because he wasn't born there. Although he did move there, so maybe he gets extra or less points for that

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Neil Young is up there too

one of my kids, who plays guitar, learned one of my favorite songs (my, my, hey hey...out of the blue) and played it for me Father's Day a number of years ago. Was incredible.

No way this deal wouldn’t of been announced yet if it was for a conditional 7th gotta be something more cooking

 

[A Star is Burns]

Do NHL transactions involve physicals like other sports do (feel like I never hear it mentioned)? I've heard of transactions being delayed before for that in other sports. Especially around a holiday or depending on where a guy is and if the teams require any specific doctors.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

Alternatively, Coghlan is not significant enough to stay late on a Friday for.

Mrs. Coghlan is disappointed in you

The logistics of it seem to make it improbable. Would they be using an independent doctor, because the team doctor does have a bit of conflict of interest to pass a guy the team is trying to get rid off?

The trades seem to be too hectic to allow for it, there never is a mention of someone seeing [a tradebait player] at doctor's office, a trade has never(?) failed due to medical reasons.

 

[htdoc]

They don’t hold up the initial trade for it…. But if a player comes in at next convenient time and goes through medical and they find something that wasn’t disclosed, then they explore having the trade reversed at that point, which can cause all kinds of problems for both teams if they have made other moves in the interim….Has happened a couple times in the past…. I’m trying to remember the last time it happened… it wasn’t thaaaaat long ago I don’t think, but my memory is failing me in my old age….

Guess no 7th after all

 

[Wolfpuck]

Good to see you again Future Considerations.

 

[Svechhammer]

I mean we all knew he had little value, but damn

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Eh, we paid nothing for coghlan. It’s whatever

 

[Unsustainable]

This at least gives GMET some talking to other GMs and maybe opens bridges

 

[cptjeff]

So long Future Considerations. I’m sure we’ll see each other again.

No no, we got him back after he signed with Winnipeg. Another returning player!

Anyway, best of luck to Coghlan, but I'm glad to move on. We can find better depth defensemen.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

This is weird and I’m speculating it may be one of the 1% of the time that future considerations could actually mean something.

Reason being - we just gave him his QO last week. We could’ve given him away for nothing and let him go to any of the 31 other teams. It’s possible (perhaps probable) it wasn’t premeditated and we just signed more dmen than we were expecting after the QOs were due, but still. A little bit of smoke given the Ehlers rumors, I do wonder if it’s loosely connected.

 

[hurricure]

Finally… some future considerations of our own

 

[NotOpie]

Is Future Considerations sliding in on the 3rd pairing or is he our #7 d-man?

 

[HisIceness]

So, we're not drafting Henrik Zetterberg?

 

[LakeLivin]

So we got him from Vegas for future considerations, which we still owe them. And we gave him to the Peg for future considerations that they owe us. Anyone else see an obvious transaction that would simplify our balance sheet?
