Sign and traded ?

I don't mean like an RFA, but has a player ever played for one time, then July first came, he signed with another team just to have them trade him to some other team ?

Just incase it's too confusing.

Player A is playing for Team A. July 1st comes around and player A is now an UFA. He signs with Team B and a few weeks later, player A is traded to team C before even playing a game with Team B

I think you have to wait until November 15 of the first season of the deal to trade guy in that situation. Can't think of too many examples where a guy didn't play at all....

I know the Bruins signed Dave Scatchard right out of the lockout and traded him on November 16 to Phoenix. That's the earliest I can remember a UFA from the prior summer being traded...at least a guy on a multi-year deal.
