They knew this was coming eventually as they got healthy. He has a good chance to be a serviceable NHL dman, but it’s probably not in Vegas. Nobody should be surprised if he’s claimed, but he’s more of the coin-flip variety.
It is interesting they sent him through waivers, rather than sending Korczak down. Should tell you what they think of Korczak.
Like so many dmen in his situation, Pachal doesn’t do anything really great, just everything well. There’s so many of them these days, every team has one or two, but he’s showed well at times with the Knights. Someone could look at that and throw in a claim, hoping for a better look.
