Confirmed Buy-Out Wisniewski bought out

[Pocket Hercules]

If he plays D as well as he plays charades then I hope the Leafs sign him...

 

[DonskoiDonscored]

3 players have been bought out the last two days that have combined for 10 games played this year.

This is incredibly stupid unless Ron already has something in the works to upgrade

We must trust in Ron.

Chiarelli should take a look at him if these Barrie rumors are false. He could fill that hole that still lingers on our 2nd pair. Assuming he can stay healthy that is.

Sekera - Larsson
Klefbom - The Wiz
Davidson - Fayne

Really, I just want to hear Gene Principe make a Wiz pun.

 

[thrillhous]

The RHD that brings plenty of offence that Chia is interested in?

 

[Stickpucker]

computing....computing.....computing

does not compute.

 

[Demon Wolf]

That is a strange move, Wiz can play and he's great on the PP. Loved him in his stint with the Habs.

 

[WannabeFinn]

lol why? his knee must be worse than expected

Yea I was thinking maybe Oilers might target him he shouldn't be too expensive and he can help bring some offense when healthy so it should be able to be a low risk high reward situation.

If I had to guess, we're going to sign a guy like Lovejoy or Schenn on a 2-year deal (for expansion draft purposes) and have him battle Murphy/Fleury for a spot.

 

[Rebuilt]

Chia might want to pick him up but only for 1 year.

 

[Stive Morgan]

Is Wisniewki's 47 seconds TOI the shortest tenure a player has ever had on an NHL team?

The closest I can think of was Joonas Nattinen playing 1:47 for the Canadiens.

 

[robbieberns]

What?

 

[NYR94]

LOL

Shortest career with a team before being bought out or has someone been bought out before even playing a single game?

EDIT: Just saw Stive Morgan's post he didn't even play a full game just 47 seconds wow

IIRC the Bruins traded for Patrick eaves and bought him out immediately

 

[logik47]

I could see him in or maybe in

 

[The Faulker]

Not sure why people saying this is stupid. The defense looked pretty good without him last season. We have a lot of young guys that need minutes. He is coming off a bad knee injury. It's not a big deal. Certainly nothing to be mad about.

 

[La Bamba]

Oilers should pick him up to play on the bottom pair as a PP specialist. He's a good RHD and veteran presence.

 

[ManofSteel55]

Honestly, I think if we did bring him in it wouldn't affect whatever is happening or not happening with Barrie/Shattenkirk, etc. Assuming that both Nurse and Reinhart play in the AHL where I want the to, we still don't have a #7 guy and I would happily swap back and forth between Fayne and The Wiz, depending on what are team needs are for a particular evening.

 

[Toronto makebeleifs]

I love him on the leafs on a 1 yr, see if he's still got anything left. The idea of what Wiz used to be is exactly what we need. Either way, I hope the guy is able to bounce back.

 

[Pavelski2112]

I could see the Sharks taking a flyer on him. Could be good with Dillon and on the point on the 2nd PP unit (which is currently Vlasic and Martin, ugh).

 

[Satastic]

Must've been one bad minute in Carolina for him to get bought out

This one surprised me

 

[funky]

Would fit nice with MCNabb on the Kings bottom pairing
