2016-17 Waivers Thread Part II

[danyhabsfan]

What does the waiver team looks like now?

 

[Joel Ward]

MA Bergeron on waivers for CBJ

Edit; and others.

Big waiver list today: Cramarossa, MA Bergeron, Jokipakka, M Weber, Didomenico, Fehr, Dumont.

Fehr on waivers must mean the Pens are going to take on salary in a trade.

Very interesting. He wasn't producing but he was finally playing better.

Wonder what's up in Pen land?

 

[Empoleon8771]

Yeah, I think Fehr gets claimed by a team like Nashville, so this move is basically just clearing out salary. I'm happy about this, not having to worry about Fehr's $2 million cap hit next year is valuable in itself if he gets claimed.

Would love the Canucks to pick up Joseph Cramarossa. Huge upgrade over Chaput & Megna. Plus with Burrows gone the Canucks could use some help.

I wonder why he was waived. I thought he was doing pretty good on the 4th line.

You might need the roster spot (for Hansen lol) but yes I like his toughness.

As a ducks fan love this guy. Not much skill( but have seen worse) but tries very hard, spark plug who sticks up for his teammates . No way he clears . Hope he does well wherever he lands. Wonder why BM couldn't just add him in a trade instead of losing him for nothing.

 

[Skiffer55]

Joki to WPG please. He'd be an upgrade over Chiarot/Stuart for 3rd pairing LD. Not a high bar to clear, but still..

Just speculation here, but maybe it's making room for Vermette when he comes back. If we make a deal for another RW or C, Vermette will probably play mostly on the wings (while still winning a ton of draws and playing on PK). Seems like Shaw is here to stay as long as RC is the coach, so I don't expect Shaw to sit much, and just recently against LA we played him over Cram. I'll be a little upset if Crammer gets claimed, but he's not irreplaceable. Hopefully he clears and he stays on the roster (unless there's another trade).

No, he wouldn't.

What's the rule about post-deadline waivers? I can't tell from the CBA.

Technically, could the Golden Knights pick up players on Waivers?

Teams are not allowed to loan a player to the AHL (unless they are returning them after a loan initiated after the deadline - either one of the four allotted loans or an emergency loan).

Vegas cannot make any transactions with any players with an NHL contract.

[Tao Jersey Jones]

Presumably to assign to Syracuse.

Interesting move for a team that's still in the playoffs. Is WBS shorthanded?

[karingoras]

I never expected some of this claims.
