A lot of people were confident he would pass through waivers.

Maybe there is some smoke to FLA being unhappy with Yandle? Quite the contract to move during a pandemic.

Have always liked Juulsen through his junior days and had high hopes for him in the pros... hopefully he gets it going in FLA. I know he had injury issues too.

First thing I always think of with him though unfortunately is when Barzal blew by him and made him look silly that one goal

Yandle - Ekblad
Weegar - Stralman
Nutivaara - Gudas
Forsling - Juulsen
Stillman

Stillman played in half their games last season but is waiver exempt so maybe they send him down to the AHL/Taxi squad.
Yandle isnt even training with the main squad

Add Keeper and Connauton

why does the team not want Yandle? from the outside looking in, ya he's getting old and has a contract with a high hit and a few years left but he still put up very good numbers including in the play ins

He is the worst defensive dman in the league after Mike Matheson and the softest

A guy with that much injury history got claimed. Guy has played barely any hockey lately

Quite shocked by this one.
They must have liked him in his draft year

why not pair him with a stay at home defender then? he could play on the 3rd pair and get limited 5 on 5 minutes if he's that bad and prime pp1 qb minutes. Seemed to work for CBJ and Gagner albeit that was a forward on the 4th line and pp1.
