Forwards Charlie Coyle and Miles Wood were traded to the Columbus Blue Jackets Friday in return for forward prospect Gavin Brindley and two draft selections, the hockey club announced .

Coyle was dealt to the Avalanche at the deadline from the Boston Bruins. That package consisted of forward Casey Mittelstadt, prospect Will Zellers and a 2025 second-round pick. Coyle has one year remaining on his contract, with a $5.25 million cap hit.

This is an unbelievably good move for the Avalanche, who cleared $7.75 million in cap space and could be unexpected players in free agency.
