Its just odd, Uncle Leo waived and cleared yet on roster? I understand to maximize LTIR but then why the waiver. And where's Timashov ?
According to CapFriendly, he is buried in the minors.Where is Ladd? He's neither on the roster, nor the taxi squad.
LL was hoping he would be grabbed. He was not, so now on roster until tomorrow for cap reasons.Its just odd, Uncle Leo waived and cleared yet on roster? I understand to maximize LTIR but then why the waiver. And where's Timashov ?
Some surprises. Bellows appeared to have a job with the 23-man roster. And I expected Bolduc to be at least in the taxi squad after hearing Trotz's comments. And Skarek instead of Schneider is another surprise. Once Timashov clears the waivers, he will be added to the taxi squad.
what did it say?
I believe Skarek is only a formality, LL said the Schneider contract will be finalized soonSome surprises. Bellows appeared to have a job with the 23-man roster.

I know Staple said once they announce the rosters, there will be moves made that make no sense and are merely paper moves. But didn't Trotz say that Bellows earned himself a spot on the team?
My guess is Koivula will go to the AHL when Kuhnackl is signed, if not sooner. He likely was only there so MDC could be on IR and still make the minimum 4 players for the taxi squad. Though, it could've been someone else who was only on the taxi for that purpose; Koivula is just my guess because he needs playing time to develop and likely won't see much on the taxi squad.Not sure where Kuhnhackl fits in this picture.
Timashov cleared and then was sent down to AHL. So, they are keeping a roster place for Kuhnhackl I guess.My guess is Koivula will go to the AHL when Kuhnackl is signed, if not sooner.

Hawks fan coming in peace for info. I’m looking for a sneaky goalie pick in my fantasy league and Sorokin would be great for it if he ends up getting 50% of the starts. Is that likely in your opinion?
Time for a brag disguised in an unsollicited update on my salary cap fantasy league in which I rolled the dice on Sorokin as he was a cheap goalie option. He allowed me to load my forwards and defensemen with more expensive options and I will finish 1st out of 43 participants thanks to his more than decent contribution. I'm now a fan of Ilya haha!
Thanks!Congrats man, Sorokin was a major boom for you!
Is it a keeper league? Do you get keep him for cheap next season?

Haha yes! Well that’s actually the reason why I had made research on him before the season. Too bad it didn’t happen! Looks like you got a good one in him!that’s great that you’re now a fan of his because according to Dreger he’s being traded to your Blackhawks!
I actually remembered you asking about this way back during training camp, lol. I just read this post and thought, "wasn't that the Hawks fan"...and sure enough.Time for a brag disguised in an unsollicited update on my salary cap fantasy league in which I rolled the dice on Sorokin as he was a cheap goalie option.
