I'm actually asking for the RHD upgrade for the Ducks, haha.I feel like realistically, the best RHD "available" is probably just going to be Gustav Lindstrom...who isn't even going to hit waivers, because he's still a free agent.
Which is maybe why he didn't sign a deal in the first place. This way, he kinda sorta gets to pick his landing spot. But i can't imagine there won't be a team that could use a big #6/7 RHD by the end of camp, somewhere.

Lindstrom is serviceable but really doesn't stand out. He and Pysyk are on par 2-way guys and probably battling to be the Ducks RHD depth/call-up. I was hoping for one that is more dominant defensively and physical with more size.
while yes the Leafs have lost the most players to waivers since 2018, it actually is close. I believe Florida has lost 10 players to waivers in that span too. They are just as likely to lose a player to waiversLeafs have led the league in players lost on waivers (and it's not close) over the last few years so I'm expecting us to lose at least one guy.
Since 2018 the leafs have lost all of the following on waivers.
I'd imagine this year it will be one of the following: Conor Timmins, Matt Murray or Alex Steeves
- Ryan Dzingel
- Adam Brooks
- Mike Amadio
- Travis Boyd
- Jimmy Vesey
- Aaron Dell
- Dmytro Timashov
- Nick Shore
- Calvin Pickard
- Curtis Mcelhinney
- Nick Aube-Kubel
- William Lagesson
The bolded I doubt will be touched by 31 other teams. Teams don’t need an expensive 4th option in net.I'd imagine this year it will be one of the following: Conor Timmins, Matt Murray or Alex Steeves
I was hoping the Ducks picked him up when he was waived a while back and his size would be nice. He should be an upgrade over Lindstrom/Pysyk (or at least add a different element) and would force Luneau to cook a bit in the AHL.That description sort of fits with Kovacevic if somehow the Devils were to assign him. I can’t see it but sometimes strange things happen.

Just most teams won’t touch him unless there’s desperation involved. Even with needing 3 goalies, quite a bit would rather see what they have in the system first then go after a guy like Murray.Murray has a $875,000 AAV this season, his contract (that was stupid from Day 1, Pierre Dorion of course) is over now.
Murray never had talent as a problem, he has the perfect shape for a goalie and good reflexes/instincts and tracks the puck well. But the guy is probably one of the most injury prone players in history. I have been a goalie for a long time and injury do slow you down for real.
You kinda need 3 goalies nowadays and the Leafs have managed that file perfectly. Stolarz is quite underrated, Woll is a good young goalie and Murray is a good vet when healthy
Rather watch Nick Robertson push someone else into the opposition instead.What if we retain him down to 450k?
Names like Barron and Timmins are interesting because Josh Brown has looked like ass in Edmonton and Troy Stecher has been slow to bounce back. I think Edmonton will be watching the waiver wire for 3RD and 4C options.
I think that Edmonton just wants a guy that can play. Ideally they'd like to replace Desharnais, but Josh Brown can't carry Desharnais' jock, so far. Hopefully he looks better as the preseason goes on but so far, he's atrocious.Josh Brown is like the complete opposite type than Barron/Timmins. If the oilers value that type of game for their 3RD, i doubt those two would be of much interest.
Oilers are going to cut a player they just signed 3 months ago to a multi year contract?
Who is in charge of their professional scouting department for Dmen? Guess they didnt learn from the Nurse fiasco.
Bouchard chompin at the bit given how Oilers just throw Millions of dollars away to Dmen.
I'm pretty sure the Brown signing was just throwing one of our old balls should have been fired long ago scouts a bone. Probably Chris Chickocki or "why the f*** is he still here" Bob Green. I don't know how he wasn't canned after the Reinhart fiasco.How's signing D depth at 1m, an amount that could be fully buried if waived, throwing money away? I mean it's either buried if he clears or gone if he's claimed.
Every team needs a good 9 D that can play NHL mins. Even if waived he likely clears due to the term as already mentioned. He's also likely to see NHL mins this season regardless. He's been brought in as a 6/7/8 D. When you fall into this grouping on any club, you risk being a press-box filler or being sent down.

I'd be pretty shocked if the Avs waived Kylington. Malinski might be a better name for the purpose of this thread, but by all accounts he's playing himself onto that bottom pair, and I think it's pretty telling that he's been paired with De-Haan, who I feel is like the JJ of the team this year, locked into that bottom pair slot. I can't really see them running with a combination of Kylington/Brannstrom/Malinski on the bottom pair unless forced to.Oliver Kylington is having a poor training camp in Colorado. Gem is not the right word, but he could be cut if his poor and unaggressive play makes him unworthy of a roster spot.
You don't have the cap spaceLet me be perfectly clear. If, and this is a big if, the Oilers waived Connor McDavid I would place a claim on him.
I still think they roll with 8 D before waiving him but I don't think Justin Barron has done anything in preseason to justify making the roster in Montreal
