Is it possible the Finnish police mixed up Weise and Lehtera?
he had no place on that 2nd line but he did have a couple of good gamesSounds like they are working on a trade to me.
Reminder, Hak PROMOTED this guy to the 2nd line for a few weeks, just 2 months ago.

Watch it be a trade for yet another goalie.
Anyone have any thoughts who might want him?
Now we can try playing the sleuth game. If it was Montreal, he’d probably have gone with the team. The mystery team didn’t claim him, so either they needed the retention, have a full roster and need to send him to the AHL, or both.

They don't need the cap space that bad. My guess is they trade him and a 7th for a 5th, or retain some salary and just get a 5th or 6th.Maybe Fletcher is okay with packaging him with a pick (3rd rounder or so) just to get rid of him. He may want the cleanest cap roll slate possible for maximum maneuverability this summer.

My unpopular opinion is that I'm okay with Weise as Forward #12-13 on this squad in 2019-20 after Lehtera is gone, Simmonds and Raffl have been traded, and some prospects crack the lineup. He seemed to start doing this season what he was brought in to do, which is be a big-bodied bottom-6 forward with some scoring touch (okay, not so much) and decent all-around play.
Giroux – Couturier – Konecny
Lindblom – Patrick – Voracek
van Riemsdyk – Frost / Vorobyev / someone else – Aube-Kubel
Laughton – Knight / Vorobyev – Rubtsov / Weise / Allison / etc.
Have someone like Weise as the designated F sitter, and getting a game every 4-5 wouldn't be a bad thing.
And for sure we will be getting a contract back. That's almost always how these things shake out.They aren't going to waive him, not re-assign him, and tell him not to travel with the team unless they are planning to trade him. Ladies and gentlemen, looks like the Dale Weise era in Philly is coming to an end soon #WeiseWatch
