Who do you see the Sens putting on waivers today

Today? Don't they have to do that at the end of camp in like 2 weeks?

 

[Sensfourlife]

It’s today I believe

 

[JD1]

It’s today I believe

Stepan
Coburn
Paquette

And just like that, thru Dorion's magic, we downgraded a 2nd

 

[jbeck5]

Does any website list players eligibility?

Am I reading it right that balcers does not need to clear waivers until he plays 60 total NHL games?

Who is exempt?

Balcers needs waivers this season to go to the AHL or the taxi squad.

On D, Jaros and Lajoie. I really doubt they want to expose Jaros, which has made some of the moves a bit more curious. Lajoie probably slips through.

At forward, besides Balcers, Chlapik also has to clear. I think he is a terrific bottom 6 forward longer term, so really hoping we don`t try and slip him through waivers.

I think Jaros and Lajoie would pass through fine. Maybe I over value them but I think Chlapik and Balcers have a shot at being picked up especially with expanded rosters.

Would Zub have to clear waivers?

 

[jbeck5]

Why is waivers before camps? Isn't the whole point to give players who didn't make NHL teams a chance to make another?

 

[Xspyrit]

I really hope some of Jaros, Balcers, Lajoie and Chlapik get picked up on waivers and get their chance somewhere else. I think Balcers get picked up without a doubt.

That’s right - they can send Bath, Brown, Brann, Form, and Norris down to protect those guys.

No wonder Brown wants a trade ...

Coburn
Paquette

Honestly, I fully expect we'll be putting Stepan on waivers. Still baffled by this trade.

Which Brown ? Do you have a link ?

I believe they are unsubstantiated rumours related to Logan. Quite possible there is fire under the smoke there though, but doubt it is anything a good season and strong showing of a few games in the NHL wouldn't fix.

Yes - I just hope get gets a chance early with decent line mates.

 

[benjiv1]

Brown fired his agent for insinuating he was requesting a trade.

Those types of raps stick with a young player.

 

[Sweatred]

How many teams would take Stepan’s cap hit ?

Nobody... he is here for the season i think.

I would guess that these guys are all placed on waivers before the start of the season:
Balcers
Beaudin
Chlapik
Haley
Jaros
Lajoie
Peca
Shaw

The Sens could put Colburn through?

I think they need to protect Chaplik, Balcers, and Jaros at a minimum.

You could be right, but I'm going to guess that there will be a ton of players going through waivers at the same time from every team with similar skillsets to those 3 that they might make it through. I would also imagine if someone takes one of them that PD would take one of theirs or someone else's of similar skillset.

Agreed, they could put Coburn through too given they got back a 2nd from that deal & don't really need him except for some vet depth & maybe as a deadline deal to get a little more. They don't have any 5th or 6th rd picks, maybe Coburn returns them one of those by the deadline.

I agree, but in the same token are Balcers and Chaplik not worth at least 5-6 RD picks ?

I would hope so, but they are really still somewhat unknown in the NHL as to what their ceilings could be. And I imagine every team has similar bubble players.
