The Eagles play 9 games before the Avs play their next game.

We should be sending down any two-way eligible players.

Malinski and Middleton.

They don’t need to play every game, but it wouldn’t hurt to help out the Eagles and also keep these guys in game shape.

Maybe Malinski doesn’t need to go down, but Middleton could certainly use more games and minutes.

 

[Balthazar]

Yea Malinski needs to rest

I was hoping this was gonna be a prelude to a trade, but it was just a miner transaction

Wouldn't Malinski need to go through waivers if they send him down?

Malinski is on a two-way contract and would not need to clear waivers.

That’s my understanding based on what I have read, regardless of how many games he has played.

Is your disappointment level miner or major?

My understanding of 2-way contracts is only about salaries. I'm pretty sure going on waivers is strictly based on age/years played.

As far as I know, it could be based on the current alignment of the planets and stars

 

[Metallo]

Not a single Avs reporter went on the Canadian west coast road trip.

Not one.

We have like 15 reporters now and nobody covers the team for 3 games and a full week.

Sad.

Weak ass coverage as usual.

 

[Metallo]

Malinski and Middleton are both waiver eligible and could technically be claimed.

 

[expatriatedtexan]

I did a google search and the damn top return was from our local resident GM....

He's waivers exempt for one more season so it'll be easy to send him down and have him as one of the top call-up options.
