Speculation: Potential waiver gems

[Nucker42]

Didn’t see a thread but just wondering what players your teams might be forced to waive who could be of interest or get a claim?

In Vancouver I think Nils Aman could get waived. He’s big and cheap but has been getting outplayed in camp.

Less likely but maybe Noah Juulsen?

Would love for the Canucks to scoop up a bigger winger with some grit.

Post your teams potential waiver players below.

Brandon Bussi could be available when/if $wayman signs.

Not the most exciting pickups but Habs have a couple with a high likelihood of being claimed.

Pezzeta and Harvey-Pinard.

RHP produces well for a bottom 6er but just couldn't be consistent enough. Pezzeta is a ginder who provides a ton of energy where he lacks skill, Habs purposefully avoided putting him on waivers last year because they knew he'd get claimed.

i'd take a flyer on pezzeta for vancouver if van waives some guys. wonder what kind of defenseman are avaliable that are right handed for them to pluck off of

The most interesting guy to watch on the Blues is Scott Perunovich. I personally think he sucks so I don’t care if he gets claimed, but he may be intriguing to other teams around the league if they feel he still has some potential. He’s currently 8th on our depth chart it seems, so if we only keep 7 D, then he may not make it and would have to go through waivers.

The only other semi-noteworthy player that might be waived is Kasperi Kapanen. He’s in a battle for one of our spare forward spots. I won’t care if we lose him either but a team looking for forward depth may take a look at him.

Was going to post the same thing. I don’t have a lot of faith in Perunovich, but he’s clearly a talented puck mover. Could really blossom if he could be suitable 5 on 5 defensively and use a shot to open up some lanes for others in a PP

 

[Some Other Flame]

Potentially Solovyov & Pelletier from the Flames.

Neither should be waived but the Flames still have way too many vets around.

I actually have a thread for this on the Canucks board.

Kiviranta could still be a solid NHL 4th liner on some teams.
