Confirmed with Link: Canucks sign G Jiri Patera to 2-Year, 2-Way Contract ($775K)

[Lindgren]

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?

Nobody else put in a claim. He's Abbotsford bound.

We do know, yes. Friedman and the like announced the Canucks were the only ones who claimed him and Canucks announced he's been sent to Abbotsford.

The legend returns.

 

[The Stig]

[Demon Eyes]

So...yes.

I take it, he never got his mask painted.

 

[M2Beezy]

So noone else out in a claim. Good to be back I guess (sic)

A four day holiday for Patera in Beantown......probably no more than a couple of practices.

In the Allvin interview, he claims the Bruins were apologetic for grabbing him on waivers in the first place....not sure if he was being facetious or not....But I guess the B's were just covering their backsides with contract negotiations with Swayman at a stalemate.
