Two former Saint John Sea Dogs were recently traded in the NHL.
On Friday, Charlie Coyle was traded to the Columbus Blue Jackets by the Colorado Avalanche. Miles Wood was also included in the transaction. In return, the Avs received Gavin Brindley, a third-round pick in the 2025 NHL Draft and a conditional second-round pick in the 2027 NHL Draft.
The Boston Bruins deakt Coyle to the Avalanche at the trade deadline. The 33-year-old posted two goals and 11 assists in 19 games with Colorado and added another goal in seven playoff contests.
Coyle, who spent the second half and playoffs with the Sea Dogs in 2012, has appeared in 950 career NHL games over 14 seasons, recording 485 points. He's also appeared in an impressive 126 Stanley Cup playoff games.
This will be Coyle's fourth NHL team after stops in Minnesota, Boston and Colorado.
Joe Veleno, meanwhile, was traded by the Chicago Blackhawks to the Seattle Kraken on June 21. The Blackhawks received forward Andre Burakovsky in return.
The former Sea Dogs captain was traded to Chicago at this year's trade deadline after spending parts of five seasons with the Detroit Red Wings, the team that drafted him with the 30th overall pick in the 2018 NHL Draft.
Veleno recorded three goals and four assists in 18 games with the rebuilding Blackhawks.
The 25-year-old has appeared in 306 career NHL games. He has yet to play in a playoff game.
