What does it mean when a team receives "Future Considerations" as compensation? : hockey

It's usually done just for that reason. A team will want to clear up some cap space but they can't come up with a deal at the time so they'll call it future considerations and think of something in the future.

The team recieving the player compensates with a draft pick so rarely that it isn't worth mentioning. A pick comes from the conditional pick trades. I reckon with the waiver draft removed, the amount of futures in trades will decline.
