Waived: 2017-18 Ongoing Waivers Thread

[Canuck Luck]

Anyone on waivers today?

 

[GJB]

As a Canucks fan, I'm hoping they claim Curtis McKenzie. BC boy.

 

[Name Nameless]

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

Do we get to know if they were claimed by more than one team? Would be fun if Subban was claimed by 27 teams and Nemeth by 30...

 

[mouser]

Subban was claimed by Vegas.

Interesting, are they going to run with 3 goalies on the active roster...

Doubt it it sounds like just the claiming team.

 

[Gospel of Prospal]

Whose camp was he at again?

Panthers

 

[NewtJorden]

Predators

No, it was Florida

 

[uncleben]

Harry ZOLNIERCZYK is on waivers

Guess he must've been signed then

I believe VGK has the option to assign him to the minors.

Good on Vegas. They have the G position pretty much under control.

That appears to be the situation:

Vegas can't assign him to the AHL without first clearing waivers. High probability Boston would reclaim him in that situation, hoping they're the only team to submit a claim so they can assign him to the AHL. Though I haven't looked at Boston's AHL goalie depth to see if they might pass on reacquiring him.

what in the world

Vegas didn't waive a single one of their 11 dmen? That can't be right. They had to have waived someone after Pulkkinen.

 

[mouser]

I think Vegas is only one IR short of fielding a legal roster (or assigning Theodore to the AHL), but that's a weird looking setup right now of 10F/11D/3G. (Assuming Neal is on IR with Clarkson and Grabo)

edit: Actually Vegas can run with 24 active players for a day because they claimed Subban off waivers. Can submit a player for waivers tomorrow then be compliant on Thursday after that player is claimed or sent to the AHL.

I guess a trade is coming...

[Brock Radunske]

Other than Nemeth and Subban, did everyone else clear?

yep!

 

[rent free]

pouliot essentially replaces weircoch on the canucks blueline as the healthy scratch.

 

[caley]

 

[uncleben]

Interesting... Vegas signed Pirri then

So there are two successful Florida Panthers PTOs now, except neither signed with Florida

 

[Curufinwe]

Are they going to play Engelland as a forward?

 

[Agalloch]

Colborne on waivers. Maybe Colorado made a trade for a D?

If he clears waivers, Vegas could use him.

Colborne for Sbisa.

 

[TLEH]

Pickard on waivers makes no sense. McPhee ???!

 

[seafoam]

Must have not found a taker on Pickard and clearly see more NHL upside in Subban even if Pickard > Subban right now.

 

[uncleben]

Both kinda interesting names.
Pickard because most believe he can be an NHL backup, and the Subban claim obviously pushed him out.

And Marincin (I think he'll go unclaimed, but) is still a decent #7 guy, imo. What is more interesting is that he is currently our spare, which means if he gets claimed or sent down, he needs to be replaced - but what value is there in scratching someone like Rosen or Liljegren as the #7 when they could be playing full minutes in the AHL.

Most Leafs fans' understanding was Marincin made the team because it wouldn't hurt his "development" nearly as much as any other D, to sit in the press box as a spare.
