CBJ announces they have traded D Cody Goloubef to the Colorado Avalanche in exchange for D Ryan Stanton

Edit: looks like torts likes Stanton and Cody will get another chance at the NHL, best of luck

 

[Speedy Sanderson]

I always liked what I saw from Goloubef, certainly more so than Prout on most occasions. Oh well, hopefully Cody gets a shot at consistent playing time in Denver.

 

[WannabeFinn]

Bednar gets his guy. Good trade for the Avs and good luck to Cody.

 

[major major]

To the Avs? What is with the Avs and spare parts from the CBJ?

Good for him he gets a chance elsewhere. I didn't think it was right that he was sent down this year, though Prout's been fine too.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

I really like Golo's game and hope he gets a chance in Colorado. Not sure why our management and coaches love Prout and Harrington over him, but it is what it is. Good luck Cody.

Trade a R-shot for left with more career points. Goboulef is the winner in this trade

Former Asst GM Chris McFarland in a similar role there. It only makes sense that you talk slightly more often to people you has gone with to do battle. From casual conversations spring the seeds of a deal.

Probably $$$ was a factor also. Golobuef is on a one way. Stanton is on a two way.

 

[major major]

Torts doesn't like Golo.

Torts loves Ryan Stanton.

Connect the dots.

 

[Jackets Woodchuck]

Trading an AHLer (from the Jackets' perspective) for an NHLer.

Hard to criticize this kind of trade.

 

[NotWendell]

Colorado Avalanche = Columbus Rejects. (And they STILL beat us in OT!)

 

[Theo Von]

I know what I'm about to say literally means nothing but Stanton played 69 games for Moose Jaw from 2008-2009 and was a -40... That's insane.

Anyways, He has solid numbers at the NHL level when he is given the chance. This deal has Torts written all over it. He clearly likes something in Stanton's game. Wouldn't be surprised if Golo asked for a trade though. From meeting him at STH events, he is a great guy off the ice. I was a big fan of his game on the ice too. Never will forget when he broke his jaw and skated off almost as if he only took a high stick.. tough as nails.

Best of luck CG.

 

[Jackets Woodchuck]

Stanton assigned to Cleveland.

I'm surprised. I expected Stanton to go to Columbus and Harrington (if anyone) coming to Cleveland.

Connect the dots.

Torts seemed to really like Golo (based on quotes to Porty) until the broken jaw happened. Then he just couldn't break back into the lineup.
Unfortunate, but now he has a chance to get back to the bigs.

 

[cbj21]

I don't like this at all!

See.....I find that stuff fascinating. Thanks for sharing.

 

[Jaxs]

Sorry to see Golo go. He was able to get called up and play a pretty well rounded game. Good skater and passer, with a decent shot.

He may have asked for this seeing how his chances in Columbus weren't panning out.

Good luck Golo.

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

I was an early champion for Cody back when he was an emerging player (I might even have suggested he was an ideal partner for Ryan Murray on the first D pair at one point, back around the time the board was considering John Moore's future), but whether by his play or lack of the right opportunity, it never felt like the emerged. Good luck to him.

 

[Nordique]

Cody is a good #7 on the right team. I hope he gets more opportunities with the Avs.

 

[CBJSlash]

This saves about $500,000. We weren't resigning him next year.

With a top 5 of Jones, Werenski, Johnson, Savard and Murray...

not much ice leftover.

 

[ndd17]

I was very surprised when Colorado not taken Goloubef through waiver before start of the season. Wish him all the best.
Stanton I've never heard about this guy earlier.

 

[Byrral]

Good luck Cody. Hope this gets him the chance to find an NHL job in Colorado.

 

[Jyrki]

I liked Stanton when he suited up for Vancouver. Not someone you notice much on the ice, which is a good thing for a depth defenseman - goes through his minutes without much fuzz. A good plug, if you will.

Which is exactly how I'd describe Cody Goloubef. Seems like equal value, which is a little odd from the CBJ perspective since the team has fewer right-hand shots. I guess it's plausible that Cody could have asked for a trade, which makes sense since he's probably an NHL-quality player, but he kept getting hurt at just the wrong time and now he's been passed on the depth chart by a few guys. Hope he gets another chance in Colorado. The guy broke his jaw and skated off like it was nothing. That's the kind of guy you root for.

CBJSlash has this correct just a couple posts earlier. Golobuef was on a one-way contract. Stanton is on a two-way. Both contracts expire in June 2017. The cash difference has to be about that $500,000 or maybe a little less. If Colorado needed a right shot depth D-man and knew he was going to see time with the big club, then go ahead and do the deal.

Based upon 20 games in Columbus, it became quite likely that Golobuef was not going to make it back up as currently configured, then Columbus should pull the trigger and save the cash. Plus, if Coach Tortorella knew Stanton from his Vancouver stint, he might see a fit longer term.
