Waived: 2017-18 Ongoing Waivers Thread

[Agalloch]

What do you think of Andreas Martinsen? Will he pass?

Dime a dozen player, so yes.

Dime a dozen player, so yes.

Strange one. Never going to be a superstar of course, but he has got so much more hockey in him than he has shown in the NHL so far. Can´t explain why he is so invisible in most games playing in the NHL. Playing for the national team he is never afraid of taking on responsibility.

With his size he should have had a good 5-10 years in the NHL playing on 3rd and 4th lines. Doesn´t look like that is happening now. In any case some time in the AHL might be good for him.

 

[Name Nameless]

I think someone might claim Martinsen.. wouldn't even be surprised if it's Colorado.

Would it be concidered bad sport by the Avs to pick him up on waivers, after having traded him to the Habs last season?

In the end it was a choice between Martinsen and Mitchell. They took the right-hand center/right winger with more experience that's good on the PK.

Yeah. Not saying they made the wrong decision. From what I have seen from Martinsen in the NHL they made the right one. Even if I think Martinsen might just take that next step on the right line with the right coach.

 

[BruinsBtn]

There will be better players on waivers tomorrow.

 

[Advanced stats]

There will be better players on waivers tomorrow.

Any idea who?

 

[T_Cage]

Are any good goalies hitting waivers past Coreau? He might be an option for Toronto if he's the best of the rest.

I'd rather throw Winnipeg a 7th for Hutch if we need depth before taking on a Coreau.

Are there waivers tomorrow? I thought with the roster freeze and all that wouldn't be happening until after the season started.

I have doubts anyone would claim Martinsen...

So, MB not only failed last season by bringing big bodies like King, Martinsen and Ott + useless Davidson at the trade deadline, but he gave a more talented player in Andrighetto

Vatrano?



I hope so. As a Rangers fan, I'm waiting for that C

 

[Kaapo di tutti capi]

Vatrano?

Even if Vatrano gets waived he'll never make it to the Rangers - I imagine he'd be a Golden Knight.

No doubt, don't know why we took him back. Lost Andrighetto for this tall ahler

pdg is surprising

No chance they want him back

 

[Brock Radunske]

I hope Rychel clears because he seems like he could be a useful late-bloomer but I'm not going to lose sleep if he gets claimed.

 

[KingsHockey24]

Nemeth claimed by Colorado.

 

[Gospel of Prospal]

Nemeth claimed by Colorado.

And Subban by the Knights

 

[KingsHockey24]

Subban was claimed by Vegas.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

pdg is surprising

Not really. Two season's ago he looked like he was developing nicely and had 41 games and 17 points as rookie. He played with a bit of physicality which worked well opposite Skinner and had some scoring touch. He then had 2 (or maybe 3) concussions and to me, he's not looked the same. Just not as aggressive and now getting passed by some other guys and soon may be passed by even more (Gauthier, Roy, Kuokkanen, Necas, etc...).

Maybe it's just a case of being injured, he fell behind and now isn't getting the same opportunity, but he just doesn't look the same to me.

 

[Tatar Shots]

Sproul and Booth clear waivers for Detroit according to Khan

 

[Gospel of Prospal]

Harry ZOLNIERCZYK is on waivers

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Looks like just Nemeth and Subban got claimed the rest must've cleared.

 

[Mike Jones]

Harry ZOLNIERCZYK is on waivers

Whose camp was he at again?

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Sproul and Booth clear waivers for Detroit according to Khan

Yup so supposedly Blashill said that Booth will play Thursday night on the 4th line, And Sproul will head to Grand Rapids.
