LA didn't claim him back?

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

It's so funny that last season's Stanley Cup Champion and runner-up both have use for Bjornfot but the Kings don't

Need to give this guy a viking funeral at manhattan beach but instead of a funeral pyre boat it'll just be an old surfboard

Guy is great at building 31 other teams though

 

[Chainshot]

With how the Panthers mine the waiver wire, it wouldn't surprise if this guy eventually is the player he was drafted to be.

 

[Osprey]

I imagine that Blake would've claimed him if he hadn't just given Moverare an extension to dissuade other teams from claiming him.

 

[KingsHockey24]

Mediocre at everything.

 

[BlueDream]

It’s the Panthers so he will probably become a star now.

 

[Jean Luc Discard]

Needed a guy to replace Sjalin.

 

[Mogo]

Forsling 2.0

For those interested, this cost Florida $56,250, paid to Vegas and not counted against the cap.



Season total: $1,074,375

On the flipside, what's interesting to me is that the rest of the league basically passed on him twice. Maybe the sky's not falling after all...

Just watch him become the next Gustav Forsling.

 

[Telos]

I hope he makes it. He has everything he needs to succeed in the NHL.

Toby Bjornfot’s favorite color is tan. He just doesn’t standout anywhere.

 

[dire wolf]

It's always surprising to me when a player slides all the way to one of the top teams in the NHL. if he's good enough for FLA, you would think a lot of other teams higher up on the waiver list would have claimed him first. How does FLA have roster room for other teams' castoffs?

Yeah, I don't feel good about this as a Kings fan.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Damn, so close to clearing.

 

[Idiot Stick]

hope he gets off on the right Bjornfoot here

 

[Jean Luc Discard]

Yeah, I don't feel good about this as a Kings fan.

Hopefully Zito caught another good one here.

Now he can have a tan too. Win win

Almost passed thru waivers
Panthers the last team to make a claim
Low cost depth D pickup for Florida

Florida is doing amazing with reclamation projects on D.

Bjornfoot must be quite excited

Yeah, even Juulsen is playing regularly with Vancouver.

After deadline, there's no roster limit, just cap limit. Florida has enough cap space. We're going to have like a 25 man roster lol

He probably thought the same thing getting claimed by Vegas. Played 4 games with Vegas , just over 9 min TOI. Maybe he'll get better there.
