Confirmed with Link: Ty Emberson (1 Year, two way, 775k)

[nyr2k2]

Yeah losing him was unfortunate. The problem was he wasn't going to fetch much of anything in a trade so it was probably worth it for us to try to sneak him through waivers. The threat of a waiver claim with these types is always some team that knows it will suck and is willing to give spot to the guys for a whole season. SJ fit the bill.

It would be great if we could have held onto him as you can never have too many RHD. He'd have basically no future here but he was still a good player.

Sharks just traded for a more NHL-proven RHD,
so now 9 d-men on active roster, plus Matt Benning on IR

Ty could be (re)waived

"[SJS/MIN] Calen Addison for 2026 5th round pick and Adam Raska"​

 

[NYR Viper]

Let’s hope so, I’d totally take him back

 

[SA16]

Not exactly a good sign if he gets waived by the worst team in the league with about zero good defenseman.

I always forget the rules for this stuff...

Do we get first dibs? Last pick? Or does it not matter that we lost him to waivers this season?

How else does one tank properly?

Also...wow that is certainly one of the defenses of all time.

I'm pretty sure it goes in the regular order based on standings, but if we claim him, we can then place him in the AHL. Any other team claiming him would need to keep him in the NHL, so I doubt any other team would put in a claim.

They way i understand it is that, if NYR claim him, and no one else puts in a claim, since NYR had waived him this season, NYR can AHL assign immediately.

Corrections welcome.

But that would mean that if, for example, NYR and Vegas claim, NYR would get him, but to demote, would at some point then need to waive and fully clear like any other team

Agree entirely except da bold
No excuse to not waive drop somebody else, beginning w/leShitshow

They did waive Leschyshyn. What does one have to do with the other? They waived Emberson because there was no room for him on defense.

Thanks for Lesch reminder.

Was there no one else that could be waived?
If it came to cutting an extraneous F and keeping all D, we do it.
Was there a lower grade LD we could have cut?
We are SO thin on RD....

 

[ecemleafs]

didnt even realize emberson was no longer with the rangers organization lol

Had they kept Emberson as well as Jones, along with all the fourth line guys (Vesey, Bonino, Pitlick), they would have been at 23 players on the roster and would have had almost 0 cap space. It would have been tough to justify rostering Jones, who to that point had been only a spare, and Emberson, with no NHL experience.

Leshitshow is so useless, was such a bad move, I'd give a 6th + him for a 7th

Also Belzile and Blidh are not worth their current roster spots given how thin or RD depth is.
And yes, I get you have to make cap space from the varsity besides roster spot.

Bonino has been solid on blocked shots and face-offs, but completely sucked other than that

I just don’t know where all this Emberson love comes from. I’m fairly sure I’ve seen him more than anyone else here. He’s a AAA player. Very bland, no outstanding strengths. Not worth having any heartache

What’s your deal with him? Seen more hate for him from you than anyone else on this platform…

It's not hate. It's his opinion. One that a lot of us share.

 

[nyr2k2]

I mean he's a limited player in that he doesn't really have any standout skills, but he was pretty solid across the board. He looked like a potential bottom pair guy that could provide decent depth to a successful organization.

Losing him isn't any kind of huge deal but it's still a bit of a bummer to lose a young, cost-controlled asset, even if the upside wasn't really there.

exactly
except for the stupidity of this being a self inflicted wound
and
a flawed depth asset is preferable to no depth asset
esp where it is extremely dif to acquire RD because of general lack of supply

Not hate at all. I’ve seen him play in the AHL and Coyotes camp. Just not impressed. I also know Coyotes management had pretty much written hIm off and then threw him into the Nemeth deal.

 

[gabevh3]

So turns out the nyr/Drury traded nemeth and 2 high picks for cap space lol
