Major miscalculation by the Penguins to waive him, they thought they could sneak him through waivers. He's not anything special, he's basically Brian Boyle 2.0, but it still sucks to lose a useful guy for nothing.

 

[Gurglesons]

The only reason Penguins fans are upset about this is because we chose Archibald over him. Guarantee he’s on waivers for Calgary by December.

"Zohorna"

 

[Mobiandi]

Definitely feels like we're back in the Sutter GM days

 

[DJJones]

Gotta love how we have like 6 4th liners now.

But we need a middle six winger. Zary and Pelletier didn't quite steal the spot.

 

[Fig]

I can't read his name without thinking "Yotes".

Ari~Zohorna.

"Zohorna"

We wanted him back when we had Hornqvist and Beau Bennett for the
Zohorny-Horny-Beauner line.

M-m-m-my Zohorna

 

[Michael Farkas]

He really struggles with pass acceptance. It's a stopper on an NHL career until it improves.

 

[Some Other Flame]

Big guy hockey good

 

[izzy]

He’s useful, pens shouldnt have risked this for nothing

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Definitely not surprised he got claimed but hes close to replacement level anyway.

 

[GirardSpinorama]

Interesting. Big guys who can play a 4th line role can be useful.

 

[SomeDude]

He has potential to be a pretty decent player. Something that Josh Archibald does not possess. I honestly hope he sticks and turns into a good player for the Flames.

 

[Sidgeni Malkby]

Oh well...so we got rid of a guy that Sully won't play. To be fair though, we Pens fans think everybody is gold, but I don't see any of our castoffs lighting it up anywhere, so this is probably more of the same.

 

[HighLifeMan]

If this prevents Eakin from signing I am all for it - and he may very well get a look next to Backlund/Coleman.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Uncle Darryl's Calgary Flames certified ALL BEEF roster

Boo this situation. Boo it!

The only reason Penguins fans are upset about this is because we chose Archibald over him.

Technically speaking, it might be necessary to waive Archibald as well.

Also, if anyone cares, here's a Zohorna highlight:

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

Sucks to lose him for nothing. Good luck to him.

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

I think he could be kinda good.

 

[Bond]

So, he actually has a chance to be a decent bottom six guy? I'll take him over Eakins lol

Also, if anyone cares, here's a Zohorna highlight:

That highlight reminds me of the random Zadorov super star moves that occasionally transpire. Neat.

Archibald isn't that bad. At least he wasn't pre-COVID. If you keep him on the 4th line and on the PK he's pretty likable on the ice.
