I can too. He's not amazing, but he hasn't looked completely out of place at the NHL level either, and he's a big hitter. If someone wants a bruiser on the blueline, he might get picked up. Might be early enough in the year that he slips on through though.I can see a bottom feeder taking a chance on him
Slips through? He will walk, march, moonwalk through with no GM giving any thought to this dime-a-dozen waiver fodder.I can too.

Sure, dime a dozen Dman but someone who like big hits. A GM looking to add a cheap/young #7 Dman who can be inserted against certain opponents may put in a claim.Slips through? He will walk, march, moonwalk through with no GM giving any thought to this dime-a-dozen waiver fodder.
No one is looking for a #7 dman. No one.Sure, dime a dozen Dman but someone who like big hits. A GM looking to add a cheap/young #7 Dman who can be inserted against certain opponents may put in a claim.
You're probably right. Worse players have been claimed though.No one is looking for a #7 dman. No one.
True, but not exactly a rounding endorsement. He will easily clear.Worse players have been claimed though.

While I believe he clears, this statement is ridiculous. So you acknowledge other claims were of lesses skill but for sure he will pass here? Flawed logicTrue, but not exactly a rounding endorsement. He will easily clear.
I acknowledged that worst players have cleared. I also acknowledge that better players have cleared. The bottom line is that he is a player you don't have to worry about not clearing.While I believe he clears, this statement is ridiculous.

Doubtful (as a fan of a bottom feeder). Everyone has their roster set and their own long-term plans. If he can't crack a poor Defensive team through his waiver-exempt years while making dirt cheap money (not to mention he's 25, not 23), he's likely just not a player that factors into anyone's 3-5 year plans unless they are really high on their tape of him, compared to whatever the Oilers are seeing internally, for whatever reason.I can see a bottom feeder taking a chance on him
Hirose was playing because Soucy is injured. They also can’t afford to take on anymore capYou never know who gets claimed anymore. If a manager liked him at one time, sometimes they like to take their own look.. especially if they have injuries…. Canucks… as good as they played on opening night, Hirose got pushed around some… Maybe they take a look.
That's not what I said. A GM could look for a #14F or #7 D with certain quality be it hitting, PK or faceoffsNo one is looking for a #7 dman. No one.
You wanna make a bet on whether this scrub will clear waivers??That's not what I said. A GM could look for a #14F or #7 D with certain quality be it hitting, PK or faceoffs
I almost hope he doesn't just so you have to eat your arrogant, smug attitude about it. Almost. I don't want the Oilers to lose him though.True, but not exactly a rounding endorsement. He will easily clear.
Don’t you worry your pretty little head about losing him. Scrubs always clear!I almost hope he doesn't just so you have to eat your arrogant, smug attitude about it. Almost. I don't want the Oilers to lose him though.
