The next MacKinnon family reunion is gonna be a little awkward.<\/p>\n
On Thursday, Utica Comets GM Dan MacKinnon traded defenseman Will MacKinnon \u2014 his own son \u2014 to the Cleveland Monsters.<\/p>\n
As if that weren\u2019t already a rough move in the AHL transaction log, the return for the Comets was future considerations.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s right, the elder MacKinnon essentially traded his own son for\u2026 nothing.<\/p>\n
The younger MacKinnon, 24, is in his third pro season and had four assists in 42 games for Utica in the 2024-25 season.<\/p>\n
The move puts him in a position to potentially play more on a Monsters team fighting for a playoff spot.<\/p>\n
Cleveland, at 28-18-5, is fourth in the North Division entering Thursday, in prime postseason position in the 32-team league.<\/p>\n
The Comets, on the other hand, are in last place in the same division at 23-26-4, eight points behind sixth-place Belleville.<\/p>\n
Utica added Austin Strand via trade before the March 14 deadline and have Seamus Casey and Santeri Hatakka returning from injury.<\/p>\n
The Comets are the AHL affiliate of the NHL\u2019s New Jersey Devils; the Monsters have the Columbus Blue Jackets as their parent club.<\/p>\n
Dan has been with the Devils organization since 2016-17, rising from Director of Player Personnel to his current positions of Assistant GM, Senior VP of Hockey Operations and Comets GM.<\/p>\n
On his University of New Hampshire athletics bio, where Will played for four years, he listed the Devils as his favorite team and cited \u201call the support I get from my family\u201d as what he\u2019s most thankful for.<\/p>\n
Whether any of that has changed remains to be seen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
