I'd love to know what they were watching last night to conclude that Stewart deserves a longer look than NAK, who was making positive plays all over the ice on nearly ever shift.

Losing NAK on waivers would be a moronic waste of an asset.

NAK seems to have been just swept under the rug since he’s been drafted, aside from his 3 minutes per game last season.

Sending Rubtsov down was the right choice, waiving NAK is a joke, Twarysnki is getting overrated, keeping Stewart is inexcusable, Hagg still being here is also completely unacceptable.
And if they plan on having Laughton play as 3C to start the year, instead of Frost (since he should be healthy by then) then they're idiots.
Shill Meltzer already suggesting it.

Absolutely no reason to not keep him on the 23 man roster, even if it's as a healthy scratch.
NAK looked damn good and Stewart gets to stay? Imagine dropping Stewart from his PTO but losing NAK to a waiver pick up? What kind of stupid f***ing management is that bullshit?

With Rubstov and Pimp going down, it looks like Frost is going to remain on the team until we see what happens with Patrick....or Patrick is back healthy.

Wonder if Stewart is being kept around because of the TV show. Adds a little bit of drama for the narrative of a comeback only to make it all the way to last cuts.

Only an idiot would think Stewart has played well enough to still have a roster spot. He has been beyond abysmal.

I would hope they care more about the quality of the team than some pointless TV show.

This is a bad take.

Nodl was 25, and over parts of 4 NHL seasons had not shown to be that good. It was strange asset management but a pretty different situation.
NAK has never really been given a chance after being the Phantoms best EV Fwd for 2 straight years.
It's more that he got sent down for an old nothing in the form of Stewart. Stewart, not even on a contract, who is on a PTO, who may still let go, pushed out NAK for what f***ing reason? What the shit did Stewart do better than anyone else that he got to stay up?
Seriously, if we let go of Stewart from his PTO and then NAK gets picked up, what kind of stupid f***ing asset management is that? What benefit is it to keep Stewart for one more possible pre-season game that it's okay to just give up on young talent like that?

Here's who is left:
Stewart, Twarynski, and Hagg....................
NAK being on waivers is a perplexing decision. If a team like Ottawa doesn't claim him, I'll be surprised. This is a pretty questionable move.
Our center depth looks horrid with Frost and NP hurt. This better be an indication that both will be fine.
Vorobyev got 2 measly preseason games early when the team looked it's worst. Yet, he still played well. This kid must have kicked Ed Snyder's dog or something. Because they have no interest in him at all. I do not get it.
