Michalek has cleared waivers and been sent to the Marlies, Ben Smith was claimed from Colorado and has taken his roster spot for now.
Tonight on the Leafs pre-game one of the analysts mentioned that a few team's were circling Michalek. They left Michalek alone when on waivers due to his cap hit. Salary retention and/or a contract coming back were said to be being considered in trade negotiations.
My guess a trade would resemble the following model.
Milan Michalek (50% retained - 2Mx1Yr) for Minor League Contract (950K or less for 1Yr) + Mid-Late rd. Pick
What teams have a roster spot open for Michalek and may want to buy low on him?
