The Golden Knights now have only six healthy blueliners on their roster, so this move may have been made to allow Coghlan to get some games in with the minor-league club, as the AHL will not be on hiatus during the 2026 Winter Olympics. The right-shot blueliner has gotten into just two games with the big club this season.

Golden Knights' Dylan Coghlan: Two goals in return to AHL
Rotowire
Coghlan scored twice in AHL Henderson's 2-1 overtime win over Bakersfield on Wednesday.
Coghlan was with the Golden Knights during their recent road trip, which wrapped up Tuesday in Montreal. Vegas is unlikely to carry an extra defenseman for the last week before the Olympic break, as it is at home for four of the next five games, with the lone exception being Sunday's game in Anaheim. Coghlan is likely to spend the bulk of the rest of 2025-26 in the AHL, where he has seven goals and 18 points over 30 appearances.

Coghlan began his career with the Golden Knights, but he's made just seven NHL appearances between the Hurricanes and Jets across the past two seasons. He'll be called up by the Golden Knights for the first time this season to provide depth for Vegas after Jaycob Megna was sent down Monday.

Golden Knights' Dylan Coghlan: Pair of points in Henderson's win
Rotowire
Coghlan scored a goal on three shots and added an assist in AHL Henderson's 4-3 win over San Diego on Saturday.
Coghlan has three points over four games this season. He never played with AHL Henderson during his first stint in the Golden Knights' organization, as Vegas hadn't established its minor-league affiliate at that time. He'll be near the top of the list of call-ups should the Golden Knights need a defenseman, though they haven't dipped into their depth while Noah Hanifin (undisclosed) has battled an injury early this season.

Golden Knights' Dylan Coghlan: Waived by Vegas
Rotowire
Coghlan was waived by the Golden Knights on Thursday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Coghlan returned to the Golden Knights on a one-year deal during the offseason, but he's slated to begin the 2025-26 campaign at AHL Henderson if he passes through waivers. The 27-year-old made just six regular-season appearances for Winnipeg last year and recorded seven blocked shots, four PIM and two hits while averaging 15:21 of ice time.

Golden Knights' Dylan Coghlan: Returns to Vegas
Rotowire
Coghlan signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Golden Knights on Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Coghlan appeared in six regular-season games with Winnipeg last season, but he spent much of the year with AHL Manitoba, generating 12 goals and 28 points across 36 contests. Having spent two campaigns with Vegas earlier in his career, he could compete for a third-pairing role with the club in 2025-26, but he'll probably have to contend with Kaedan Korczak for playing time.

Jets' Dylan Coghlan: Makes season debut
Rotowire
Coghlan fired two shots on net, added a hit and went minus-1 in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Golden Knights.
Coghlan made his Jets debut against one of his former teams. With the Jets starting to falter, he received a chance to play on the third pairing over Colin Miller. Coghlan was limited to one NHL appearance in 2023-24 and has just three assists over 18 outings across two seasons since he left Vegas. He may get more opportunities moving forward, but his role is too limited for fantasy consideration.

Jets' Dylan Coghlan: Awaiting team debut
Rotowire
Coghlan has yet to play in the 2024-25 regular season.
Coghlan was traded to the Jets by the Hurricanes in July and signed a two-way deal with his new club a few days later, but he's still awaiting a chance to make a first impression. The 26-year-old has a total of 22 points over 106 career appearances.

Jets' Dylan Coghlan: Traded to Winnipeg
Rotowire
Coghlan was dealt to Winnipeg from Carolina on Saturday in exchange for future considerations.
Coghlan saw action in only one game with the Hurricanes last season after playing 105 NHL contests over the previous three campaigns. The 26-year-old defenseman had 16 goals and 25 assists in 61 AHL regular-season games with Springfield in 2023-24. He will be in the mix to fill out the bottom pairing with the Jets, and if he cracks the lineup, he could see power-play time on the second unit.
