Tough day at the office, but pending completion of trade call, Vegas is Trading Winnipeger, Cody Eakin to the @NHLJets. Confirmed!


Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger
Conditional 4th that could go to a 3rd. 2021. If the Jets make playoffs or re-sign Eakin.

Hope he worked to confirm this one

This was somewhat easy to call, after the Martinez signing and subsequent callups from the AHL. Interesting that it was the Jets, though.

Little replacement.

[Bonded]

I thought Eakin was a lot better than he is apparently

[442scotty]

Cody going home

[agulati]

Surprised that is all they got for him. Vegas is not that significantly removed from a wild card spot and can potentially drop down and be competing with the Jets.

stats and contract status don't seem that dissimilar to Frolik


I guess the main differences in the trades are proximity to the trade deadline and in this case within conference

[mikephoen]

Maybe Vegas is sending him in as a sleeper agent.

There's nothing more cruel than sending someone from Winnipeg or Edmonton back to Winnipeg or Edmonton.
