Patera is now on waivers, I am sure Allvin and Co will put in a claim.
I would expect they'll want to reacquire him. But alternatively, if Demko is closer to returning than is being reported, then maybe they stick with Lankinen and Silovs.

Not entirely sure, but I believe both Lankinen and Silovs would need waivers to join Abbotsford. And I could definitely see one of them being claimed.

Silovs is waiver exempt.

The question is - did Patera even fly out of Vancouver?

Actually it seems like he had a few days with the Bruins. Welcome back king

Imagine being a hardcore Bruins fan who bought a Patera jersey because of reasons.

Not surprised following the post-claim narrative around this ... obviously, they are a little uncomfortable with the goaltending stable past Silovs.

He's baaaaack!......So encapsulating Allvin's activities since the onset of training camp.......he loses then regains Petera on waivers; dumps Poolman's contract and acquires another depth d-men in Brannstrom.....and most importantly lands the Canucks firmly under the salary cap ceiling.

I mean, how does he do it, year after year?

Sooo, do we know that no other team placed a claim and he's on his way to Abby? Or do we have to waive him again later today or tomorrow and there is a chance he's picked up before going to Abby?
