If Zykov was a top 6 forward, he wouldn't have been on waivers
Connor creates a lot of chances and space for others. Have actual good quality players with Connon and they'll outplay these bums by a mile.
Well the Flyers don't have a GM thats most likely whyLA

While I agree that it's not sensible to remove Chiasson from his current role given how red hot he is, the skillset that Chiasson brings is nothing like that of Zykov. Two very different players.For those not following the plot, Zykov isn't going to knock Chiasson off that first line or first PP spot. He's been excellent in that role this year, and frankly brings a similar but superior skillset to what Zykov brings.
Best case scenario is Zykov is slotted next to Nuge.
I bet many Flames fans said the same about Paul Byron before Montreal picked him up...If Zykov was a top 6 forward, he wouldn't have been on waivers
Yeah. So there was one decent player in dozens of waiver claims.Interesting viewpoint from a fan of a team that handed Montreal a 22 and 20 goal scorer on waivers.
Yes, waiver claims are usually nothing, but the kid is only 23 and led the AHL in goals last year. He has talent.

Love the honesty lolHe will be on the first line and will put in 15-20 by years end. I hate EDM.
Blake was likely avoiding the slow skating factor. Even still, he would have helped the ailing roster, while also getting a bit younger.
I think the Oilers were actually ahead of us in the order now that I look at things. Going into last night we were up on you guys in the standings by a point. Those listed there look like today's order with you leaping us with your win and our loss. At least that's what I hoped happened since it should have been a no brainer for us to put in a claim.Kings didn’t have much for cap space but could have made it work. Don’t know why they passed.
Blues had no cap space and don’t need wingers. Flyers didn’t need wingers. Panthers - same. Devils - thought they would have claimed him. Chicago just dealt for a winger. Arizona’s at the 50 man contract limit and couldn’t. Don’t get Vancouver not going for it. Ott/Det would have made sense as well.

LA is so ****ing stupid.
I thought it was by total points but apparently it is by point percentage and not raw points based on the tweet on the Canucks board below. Once again Benning just doesn't see a potential upgrade even if just for 2 weeks. Seriously how can he not be at least worth a look at upgrading on Horvat's LWer's he's had thus far.That would make sense. I don’t really know the ins and outs of waiver claim pecking order. Agreed, he would have been a no brainer for you guys as well.
Yes, Ineffective Math on twitter tweets out the waiver order every time someone gets waived. Here's what it was yesterday:
It goes by Point percentage, not raw points.

Treliving can't even spell waivers.Most Flames fans will tell you Brad Treliving tried sneaking him over waivers; and it didn't pan out.
Good for Paul, because he'd never be given the opportunity he has in Montreal.
