Speculation: Who do you see being waived from your team?

[BROCK HUGHES]

Hopefully the Canucks waive granlund/Gaunce/motte/Goldobin

Leaving them with

Baertschi horvat boeser
Dahlen Pettersson virtanen
Eriksson sutter leipsic
Gagner beagle Roussel
Schaller

Edler stetcher
Hutton tanev
Pouliot gudbranson
Mdz biega

But the Canucks probably end up keeping Goldobin/granlund up, waive biega and send down dahlen

Man our defence looks horrible.Even be worse when Tanev is injured again.
We all know thats gonna happen.

At some point this season we're probably going to have to waive two goalies. It might hurt our depth, that's life, I'm sure we can find an AHL vet to put on the Marlies. McElhinney is the best bet to make it through waivers and if not he's the easiest loss to swallow. He was fantastic last season but let's be real, he's 34 and played well above his career averages. We shouldn't be banking on those results going forward.

A wise man.

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

Beaulieu is likely at the top of the list - Borgen & Guhle are coming along nicely.

Agree with Larsson and Girgensons. This is likely Girgs last chance to resurrect the Nolan era version of himself.

Beaulieu back with the Canadiens, unless Arizona/Ottawa grabs him first ?

Depends on how the season goes but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Kadri waived and bought out by 2021. He’s already on the decline and it’s only going to get worse by the year end

The TML ( Two Million Losers) fans don't even have a sense of humor . I get ya. Funny . These fools won't even say that to you.
Keep on keeping on. Another poster wrote it must be a misprint and bolded Kadri . Yeah should have read Nylander. 50 years of frostbite and no championships . For those that read this and don't understand anything except nothing, Kadri and Nylander are both superb players and won't be waived

No it wouldn't hurt our depth it would destroy our depth there is a huge difference.

I was never on the mcbackup bandwagon myself but I am of the opinion that you need to earn your spot and that needs to be done in camp, after the year Mac had Sparks or Pickard need to take his job in camp.

Whomever wants him -- Guhle is just about ready to move up full time and Nate is low man on the totem pole.

Hopefully the Canucks waive granlund/Gaunce/motte/Goldobin

Leaving them with

Baertschi horvat boeser
Dahlen Pettersson virtanen
Eriksson sutter leipsic
Gagner beagle Roussel
Schaller

Edler stetcher

Motte does not need to clear waivers.
Why go after the low hanging fruit?

It’s the likes of eriksson and gagner that would put management to the test for them to make room for the kids. Gaunce is a checker so you’re not putting dahlen or gaudette in that spot. They need to be in scoring roles. That’s gagner and eriksson. Granny can go up and down but if they moved on from him no big deal.

It's not ideal but in this situation it would appear that in this case you have to keep 3 goalies

Not happening.

 

[Dr Quincy]

For the Habs, waiver eligible and battling for 14th forward (depending on Byron's shoulder):

Froese, McCarron, Peca. (likely Peca stays)

... battling for 7th D:

Schlemko, Valiev, Lernout, Ouellet

It wouldn't be a complete shock if Mete not having a great camp, starts in the AHL so the Habs can get a longer look at Lernout/Valiev.

Is Reilly making the team for sure?

 

[Asimplehockeyfan]

Can see Lazar in the press box and Hathaway waved. After our prospect game I want dube in!

 

[Kraken Jokes]

Is Reilly making the team for sure?

In my opinion, yes. For sure.

 

[inthe6ix]

Leivo, McBackup

 

[biotk]

It could happen, but it is doubtful. If the Leafs put two goalies on waivers at the same time the chances of them both being picked up would be extremely slim.

I don't who will be kept, but keeping a 35 year old who just came off a career year that he is astronomically unlikely to repeat, over a 25 year old AHL goalie of the year seems beyond stupid to me. The chances of the Leafs organization having too many goalies is much more likely than the chances that they will have a shortage. They could easily see both McBackup and Pickard pass through waivers (I don't see Sparks getting through waivers) and then need to trade one as they also have Kaskisuo on the Marlies.

Beaulieu back with the Canadiens, unless Arizona/Ottawa grabs him first ?

I would love that

 

[ottomaddox]

Toronto;

1-2 of McBackUp, Pickard and Sparks
Leivo (if they want to give him a chance)
Ennis (if he fails to impress)

I am sure there are other less notable players but these are the ones that might entice another team to claim them.

What does your potential waiver wire look like?

I wish there was a way to like a post more than once.

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

I would love that

I would not say love, but I surely would not hate it.

He was a team player.

If God had only given him a little more hockey IQ...

But I guess she only had so much to distribute.

 

[Potty John]

Lazar, Hathaway, And I hope Rittich.

 

[Rubi]

Curtis Lazar or Garnet Hathaway or both

 

[Rubi]

Lazar, Hathaway, And I hope Rittich.

I think Rittich will start the season as Smith's backup. Gillies is waiver exempt where Rittich isn't.

Curtis Lazar or Garnet Hathaway or both

Are either of those a C?

 

[Rubi]

Are either of those a C?

Lazar can play center.

 

[Son of Petter]

At this point Granlund/Gaunce (I think he gets claimed) for Vancouver.

 

[Volica]

I loved Doobs in the prospect game.
Lazar and Hathaway along with any PTO guy might get waived.

Nothing of major interest in Calgary.

 

[Holtbyisms]

Only thing I can see for the Caps is if Shumakov completely tanks and sucks it up horribly. I don't see that happening cause I think he'll be given a chance to play with other high skill players but there's always the chance with a KHLer who doesn't want to go to the AHL...Although his agent claims he's willing to do so if need be.

 

[Nerdgasm]

Would it be wrong to wish for Aquilini and Benning from Vancouver?
