Canucks could use him when they send DiPietro to Utica when the AHL season starts

Dick move.

Note that they can't just trade him without restrictions.

13.20 (b) A Player who has been acquired by Waiver claim shall not be Traded to another
Club until the termination of Playoffs of the season in which he was acquired unless he is first
offered on the same terms to the Club(s) that entered a claim when Waivers were requested
originally and the offer has been refused.

This is as clear as mud, and I'm not exactly sure what "the same terms" means. Also, we have no idea if other teams put claims in for him.

That said, would be nice of Carolina just to waive him again.

I think it means that if any other team besides Canes made a waiver claim for him, then Forsberg would be first offered as a waiver claim to those teams, and only if they pass on him he can be traded.

So that means either no other team put in a claim on him or someone did and for some reason they no longer want him? I'm assuming 'same terms' means they can claim him off waivers as well

waiver rules...

other teams that filed a claim on him and original team are the first ones who can trade for him with the next team after Carolina who claimed him has exclusive rights on getting him. Until they decline it goes to the next team and soon Thrn back to Edmonton.

on,y after he clears that an he get traded.

theteams after Carolina can low ball offer and if Carolina refuses he can be stuck in Carolina.

if Carolina waiveshim to send him to AHL and thise the claimed and Edmonton refuse at waiver claim costs then he can be traded anywhere

I’m sure the NHL is real happy with this. The whole point of the taxi squads was to ensure enough players (especially goalies) were available.

How the NHL didn’t designate a waiver exemption for the goalie position on the taxi squads seems to be a massive oversight.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Can’t see to much interest

 

[Canuck Luck]

Caucks offer future considerations or any of the following players: Eriksson, Baertschi, Ferland, Benn, Sutter, Beagle, Kielly, or Elliot

that's a whole lot of dead wood ya got there

 

[nzoilerfan]

Yea I didn't think they could trade him until any other team that put in a claim got the opportunity to claim him first and he also had to be offered back to EDM first?

If he was just insurance for getting Nedle back through waivers then they should just waive him again and let EDM have him back.

EDIT: Apparently Forsberg hasn't even left Edmonton yet so I guess he and the teams have maybe something already in the works...

 

[Burnie97]

Dick move.

Someone already said this probably but what a bunch of jerks.

Maybe they're really are a bunch of dicks.

Long as they aren't jerksdick

Honestly though they should just waive him now so someone else can get their 3c situation settled

 

[Negan4Coach]

Dundon all like "let me show you how I used to rip people off with high interest car loans, only with goalies"

Lol... exactly.

That's pretty sketchy doing that.

 

[boredmale]

I thought when you pick a player up on waivers you can't trade them for like a year(or at least till season's end). If Carolina wants to get rid of him isn't their only option to give him back to Oilers first(assuming they accept)

 

[Canuck Luck]

Meh...delete

Lol that’s the point, you’re not getting anything of value for a waiver wire goalie

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Typical jerks

 

[howkie]

So any team wants Forsberg as backup?

 

[Dread Clawz]

They gotta stop jerking around

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

I still think he’ll end up back with the Oilers. People call it a duck move, but it was just an insurance policy in case Nedeljkovic got claimed. My understanding is the Canes even told Forsberg not to leave Edmonton.

 

[Captain Controversy]

Probably a cap dump for Forsberg.
