Seemed logical since they can then assign him to the AHL.

For those interested, this cost Vancouver $67,500, paid to Boston and not counted against the cap.

At least he got some free frequent flyer miles out of it

Only if no one else put in a claim

Thank you for your service. Looking forward to the montage when he returns to Boston this season.

He's not on waivers today so I'm assuming no one else put a claim in

Does his name get engraved on the cup when the Bruins win the cup?

He will go down in the NHL Lore as a small piece of leverage to get the Swayman deal signed.

There are players with less legacy than that.

Not neccessarily...

Vancouver would have had to submit their waiver list by noon today. They would not have known if they were successful in claiming Patera until after noon.

He’s back lol

Damn Vancouver just held onto the Bruins 60k while they rented a goalie for camp and sent it back when it was time to come home.

Holy christ how do people here and on Reddit and everywhere not know the reclaim rule yet as it pertains to skipping waivers.

Hope he had a nice time in Boston during the nicest time of the year. Good foliage and a few goalie Bob clinics? What a vacation
