Claimed off Waivers: [MIN] Wild claim D Travis Dermott off waivers from the Oilers

[uncleben]

For those interested, this cost Minnesota $13,125, paid to Edmonton and not counted against the cap.


Players claimed this season: 17
Total compensation: $490,500

That's wild someone would claim him

Agreed. He should probably find another line of work. Maybe as a Dermottologist.

Kapanen: playing well
Brown: playing well
Hyman: reached heights he never could have dreamed of playing with Midtthews

We signed Dermott to be our #8 D. Minnesota claimed him because their blueline is decimated. Absolutely nothing to see here.

you're forgetting someone, which is strange considering you'll see him on your cap for the the next six years

You mean the guy with addiction issues? Not exactly his fault…

people enter the treatment program for many reasons, not just addiction. It's just funny that in responding to a post about the Oilers picking up ex-Leafs who they had to waive, you don't mention the most prominent and damaging example

Campbell was picked up on waivers ?

I must have been day dreaming...

No you’re just misunderstanding a post. “They had to waive” is referring to Edmonton.

I would describe him as a “clock killer”

He’s a decent spare tire D man, nothing wrong with a claim imo but not really a loss for the Oil

Ken Holland that you?

So back on subject: given our injury situation, why not. Doesn't bode well for the near future though.

Man you never know. We lucked out with kapanen as a short term fix.

End of day he doesn’t work you waive him

Be nice to plug in Daemon Hunt right about now instead of trolling the waiver wire. . .

Just like Slater, Saved by the Bell!

Injuries piling up just in time the the annual Wild mid season slump.
