Claimed off Waivers: Jayce Hawryluk placed on Waivers - Claimed by Ottawa

[CHGoalie27]

Rangers need an upgrade in depth. I hope they claim him

Yes we do, he was pretty good and stunted a bit down here. Given some time, I doubt he disappoints whoever picks him up. Hopefully NYR.

Meanwhile @RainingRats did we just throw out a possible trade piece if we were going to make any kind of deal with NYR? Not that I hope Kreider goes anywhere, but if he has to I obviously want him coming up the road from where I live. And no on Skjei, we already have Ek.

 

[Passchendaele]

Bust.

Hawryluk has almost no value. Us basically getting rid of him to clear a roster spot for other moves makes that clear.

He seems to like hitting

He seems to like hitting

He does, but there's not much to the rest of his game. It seems like he lost too much developmental time to injuries. It sucks because he's a real heart and soul guy.

As a wings fan I’ll take it. We suck and nobody even touches a soul half the time. Would be a welcome sight to this dumpster fire

 

[ProjectPanthers]

Good speed, decent hands. Terrible decision making with the puck and takes a lot of stupid penalties.

Still, one of the only Panther players that had any grit and they waive him lol. Total dumpster fire.

Gotta think they’re freeing up a spot for a roster move. Could just be an AHL guy being called up though.

 

[izzy]

perfect claim for a seller to fill in some roster holes made from upcoming trades

 

[Ryuji Yamazaki]

Precursor for a trade?

 

[absolute garbage]

I could definitely see him claimed. There are few teams with massive IR lists, like Columbus and San Jose for example, that could be looking for a warm NHL body.

[Gentle Man]

Tkatchuk and Hawrlyuk? That's a lot of souls about to be maimed.

 

[BUCKLE UP]

Nice. We did something

 

[violaswallet]

Take care of Hawk...he really is a likable player. If Bob was still the coach, he'd still be here. Quenneville doesn't trust him and prefers to have defensemen on the 4th line, which doesn't bother me because Q is Q.

 

[Mike Jones]

Must be loading up in case some trades send people out the door.

 

[Bubbles]

-Vancouver: Had previous interest in him, but I can't see them dumping someone off their current roster to make room for him.

The Canucks prefer to overpay for their 3rd/4th liners, not get them for free.

For those interested, this cost Ottawa $56,250, paid to Florida and not counted against the cap.

 

[SpezDispenser]

Sure, why not...

hows that?

Waiver costs

A team has to pay another one to claim a player off of waivers.
The amount is determined by the player's position combined with years served under contract (with the underlying idea being a younger, more inexperienced player hitting waivers probably hasn't received the same number of chances and is more likely to turn it around, therefore its a bigger lost for the original club, and so a bigger waiver cost, versus an older player who is likely a journeyman or a veteran who is on waivers due to decline, and therefore they cost peanuts).

It's a straight club-to-club transaction with no implication on salary cap, essentially buying out the player's contract from the other club.

Cool can't wait till Melnyk is being sued next year for 56,250 dollars.

ouch that’s gotta sting melnyk’s wallet.

 

[belair]

It's OK. Hawryluk's probably gonna score 40 points next season in a scoring role.

 

[iCanada]

Hmm. I'm surprised Florida waived him. I feel like there would have been trade interest.

Certainly I think the Oilers and a few other teams would have made a play on him.
