Cogliano was drafted 25th overall by the Edmonton Oilers in 2005. Since then, in addition of the Oilers, he played for the Anaheim Ducks, Dallas Stars, San Jose Sharks and Colorado Avalanche.
Despite a disappointing playoff exit in the second round of the playoffs against the Dallas Stars, the Avs should remain among the best teams in the NHL next season. If they can make a few depth acquitisions to fill holes in the lineup, they'll once again need to be taken seriously going into the 2024-25 season.
