Hope he does well for you guys, he was never going to get ice time under Ruff. Ruff is too focused giving Jordie Benn too many minutes.

More insurance in case of more defensive injury to insure we never have to see Will Weber in the NHL.

St. Denis hasn't been awful. Every D will have to clear waivers now. So you have the 6 that are playing tonight (Erixon, Wiz, Johnson, Prout, Leopold, Savard) plus St. Denis already on the active roster. Tyutin, Murray, and Goloubef all on IR and due back at various points. What are you doing with Connauton? Making him the temporary #7 and then sending St. Denis back down?

Unfortunately, it's probably not good news for Murray as we was supposed to be the closest one ready to come back.

Kevin Connauton was +17 corsi in 8 games. 9.6% on relative OZ starts, all even strength. #CBJ (data courtesy @war_on_ice)

We do have a knack for turning waiver wire bargain bin players into untradeable contracts on other teams, so let's hope lightning strikes again.

This tells me that Murray and Tyutin aren't coming back any time soon and we're planning on trading someone at the deadline.

This was a waiver claim, not a blockbuster trade. Not sure I understand the angst.

Just stirring the pot. :laugh: This is probably going to be nothing more than adding some depth with a slight possibility, as you mentioned, of being a steal if everything plays out perfectly.
