McCrimmon is very well aware of Brooks from back in Junior. That, mixed with VGKs insane amount of injuries, makes this claim not surprising at all

Like when Montreal claimed him, Vegas needs bodies with their injury issues. Would not be surprised if he is back on waivers at some point down the line.

COVID and injuries. I think lots of teams are trying to keep young players in the AHL due to lack of games played in the last year and a half as well. Better to keep them getting big minutes and opportunity rather than a reduced role in the NHL

Didn't realize teams were financially compensated for waiver claims. How is the compensation calculated?
Where they get the actual dollar values from, I actually don't know, but it's tabled out in the CBA.

This is how it breaks down (giving away my secret here!)
