The Detroit Red Wings acquired Kris Draper from the Winnipeg Jets on June 30, 1993, for future considerations that ultimately equated to one dollar. Draper was a 22-year-old forward with only 20 NHL games over three seasons with the Jets. The transaction barely registered outside the organizations involved at the time.
