Grub's Canucks & NHL News, Rumours, and & Fantasy GM | Training Camp Begins

[Blue and Green]

Kind of surprised so many obvious cuts are still up, but I wonder if they are waiting for all the teams to waive their waiver eligible players to try and sneak people through.

Many of the obvious remaining cuts are waiver-exempt so it might just be a matter of keeping them around for a little more evaluation in practice, with perhaps a few even getting into Monday's game.

Abbotsford's training camp starts on Wednesday so probably the bulk of cuts will come after Monday's game with only the true bubble guys being kept around through Friday's game.

I wonder if Boston would be willing to do a Juulsen for Wotherspoon trade. Boston’s left side is pretty set but they could use a depth RHD considering Peeke is injury prone/healthy scratch material.

Wotherspoon would be a nice physical stay at home 6/7 D and can be insurance if and when Forbort inevitably becomes unplayable.

Kale Clague or Jake Christianson would be decent adds as well if they hit waivers

Surprised Pettersson made this cut. Maybe they want him to play a few more games before Abbotsford's training camp (October 2 to 5).

He seemed like he couldn't match the speed of the game at this level yet.

Likely just giving him more time to work with Foote and Gonchar before Abbotsford's camp opens.
