Jarmo tried to dump 5.4M and get paid for it. Ends up just giving away a freebie.

For those interested, this cost Carolina $11,250, paid to Columbus and not counted against the cap.



Season total: $705,000

I assume it's so they can send Perets down.

He will likely be waived again when Kotchetkov or Andersen comes back.

 

[DingDongCharlie]

Watch Martin post a .910+ with Carolina.

Yep, stopgap until Kotchetkov is healthy (concussion, should be another week or so), then hold him as a third goalie until/if Andersen comes back. Raanta has recovered his game a bit, but even in his better years has never been able to start more than 2 in a row without falling apart. Not to mention he's historically fragile as well.

From what I've seen on the Canucks, Martin seems to be pretty good to start with but his play takes a dive later on so is probably a good option for what the Canes need

He was solid in Columbus. Based on the new CBA guidelines CBJ had to pass him through waivers prior to any trade. No chance he was going to make it through. He's a very good backup and spot start guy. Ignore any numbers coming our of Columbus. Not a fair representation of how he played. Good not great but a NHL goalie....at least that's what we saw.

I'd say this is accurate for his season with CBJ. Started out hot, but has faded as the season progressed.

Oh boy Martin and Raanta

Not pass through waivers, specifically.
But he must be offered to any team that put in a (failed) claim when he was claimed last time. [CBA 13.20(b)]

The fact that he was put on waivers makes me think there was no imminent trade anyway

So before they can waive him, he'd have to be offered for free (future considerations) to any team that claimed him the first time? Is that true for anyone claimed during the year?

 

[featherhawk]

not suprising with K injured... Martin effectively IMO is the Canes best avail. goalie at this time, he is better than Raanta is at this point in time.

Watch Martin post a .910+ with Carolina.

not out of the question, he has had times where he plays well. who knows, some goalies exceel when they join a group with a coach that has different systems...

He lost an asset he got for free. Not really that big of a deal. Tarasov has a higher ceiling and Greaves has been exceeding expectations. This is not a big deal in any way.

It’s not. I’m just pointing out his Elvis dump master plan which included hiding him from scouts view and confusing the entire CBJ market has fell apart in hilarious fashion. I really am curious what offers were on the table for Elvis back when the Oilers were in panic mode that Jarno tried to squeeze for more and now is left holding the bag.

Spencer Martin is obviously nothing to worry about.

How dare you deny someone another chance to shit in Columbus.

Does the 19 claims mean that he was offered to the 19 claimants from the previous waivers and Carolina was the first in line who could and would bite?

Jarmo. Not Columbus. I hope Columbus has plenty of success. City deserves it. Wish Bedard went there too.

He’s been a lot less effective since Stan Bowman has been out of the league. No more easy sucker to fleece time and time again

9 years in CBJ. A blockerbuster signing and blockbuster trade in recent years. Only minimal light at the end of the tunnel. I don’t know, I think CBJ deserves another look from a different GM.

Oh boy Martin and Raanta

Yes, that's so much worse than Perets and Raanta.

Right both are poop

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Right both are poop

both can still be poop, but Martin is better than Perets.

Still, it's a waiver claim until Kochetkov and (hopefully) Andersen get healthy that doesn't cost anything. I suspect you know that and are trying to be clever, but it's having the opposite effect.

That's the season total for how many players have been claimed off waivers
