It was a blip way back in the day before Toronto signed Cujo. In the old CBA there was a provision that if a have not team lost a player then they would be compensated. So teams that knew they were going to lose a player traded them to the Flames or Oilers for a late pick. The Have not team would be compensated by the NHL with a higher pick (I think it was a second round pick for Cujo).

Nvm...he came from Toronto before signing with Detroit when that happened.
