of course because we need the roster spotsThe funny part is he is probably one of the better guys we tried to pass through and actually cleared...

Because bottom feeders are in a position to give young tweeners more ice time and see how they respond/provide a little bit of depth as they tank so that their real prospects don't get bashed against the rocks.I have to ask ...
If Anderson would make a good bottom 6er on a bottom feeder team, then why in the world was he playing for the Leafs?
You can see the quandary here as it reflects on the Leafs.
Slightly surprised, tbhAll I see is Driedger on waivers so far.
Edit: Tierney claimed by Montreal.
The funny part is he’s been clearing waivers for years .The funny part is he is probably one of the better guys we tried to pass through and actually cleared...

To be fair, this is the first time he's been put on midseason waivers, and at a time when lots of teams have injuries, underperforming players, pieces lost from trades and/or are gearing up to sell offThe funny part is he’s been clearing waivers for years .
Is XGF expected goals for and if so do any of these expected goals turn into real goalsHe has the highest rel xgf for the Leafs this year and that is while playing mostly a defensive role.
Not claiming he is a great player, but he is young enough that I'd think a team may take a chance, he is still a decent prospect.
He turns 25 in June , he’s been clearing waivers for 3 years , he’s still just an ahl’er but hey I stat mined and found something that I can post to say he’s still a decent prospect , lolHe has the highest rel xgf for the Leafs this year and that is while playing mostly a defensive role.

Good point but as a few other posters have said , every team has a few of these type of prospects .To be fair, this is the first time he's been put on midseason waivers, and at a time when lots of teams have injuries, underperforming players, pieces lost from trades and/or are gearing up to sell off
The only other times he's been on waivers have been season opening waivers, on like the last possible days, when 99% of the guys clear as teams are finalizing their opening roster

I didn’t know who he was when Dubas traded for him but when he re-signed and the first 2 yrs were 2-way money I pretty much wrote him off . Dubie hands out min wage 1way deals like Halloween candy so if he couldn’t get a 1 way deal out of him it’s very telling of the type of prospect he was .
We had spots on our 4th and he couldn’t earn one .I assume you don't watch the WJC if you didn't know who he was.
He is a decent player and surprised he cleared since at worst he is better than some fourth-line players on other teams and young enough to be more than that.
What is funny is you probably complain that we traded Marchment and have this opinion.
If he is better than then a bunch of teams 4th liners why didn’t one of them claim him?I assume you don't watch the WJC if you didn't know who he was.

Lol again if he is better and has more potential another team would have claimed him. Hell if your worried about getting better they could have claimed him and just scratched him for the rest of the year.Why pick up a player who can help if you're tanking? Anderson is for sure better than some players who are currently player on 4th lines, or at the minimum, the same but has more potential

Maybe after years of not being able to capitalize on his chances here and no one claiming him off waivers he just isn’t as good as you think he is
How has he been clearing for three years?He turns 25 in June , he’s been clearing waivers for 3 years , he’s still just an ahl’er but hey I stat mined and found something that I can post to say he’s still a decent prospect , lol

Meh.Joey Anderson is going to be the new Adam Brooks. If he gets claimed people will freak out.
Second year.Yeah, I’m pretty sure this was his first year of waiver eligibility.
I had high hopes for him when acquired, and still think he’d be fine taking a regular shift on a third or fourth line. I’m happy he cleared.
All reports have him being smart, responsible, good leadership. Did everything on the Marlies, kept progressing, and no complaints.
If I’m wrong I sit corrected , I thought you had to clear after your elc was up and your on your 2nd contract .Second year.
He first cleared in October 2021.
Anyone who thinks he's been clearing waivers for three years is full of shit.
