    Lots of interesting names on waivers today. Wondering who you think gets claimed? By who? Who clears?

    Comrie gets claimed. I think either by Toronto, Florida, or Minny. DeSmith gets claimed by the other one of FLA/MIN.
    Sprong gets claimed by EDM.
    Ho-Sang gets claimed by SJ.
    Baertschi gets claimed by LA.
    Petan is claimed by the Leafs' alumni team (Ottawa).

    I think Wpg claims one of - Manning, Hickey, Biega, LaDue

    I can't see how DeSmith or Sprong don't get claimed.

    Van clearly hoping Baertchi gets claimed to free up that 3.4m cap space.

    Christian Djoos - Winnipeg
    Sven Baertschi - LA
    Josh Ho-Sang - Edmonton
    Daniel Sprong - Pittsburgh
    Casey Desmith - Columbus

    Everyone else clears.

    I am not 100% familiar with the waiver process. When will claims be known?

    I don’t see DeSmith making it through the lower teams to Columbus. Florida “needs” to make the playoffs this year, and Montembault can still be sent down, right? Neither of those are their future beyond 2 years, but that depth this year??

    12-team, H2H. Keep 12, but drop 2 of top four skaters, and also 2 of next six, then five more (from end-of-year rankings). One GK max.

    What is the priority list based on? Standings as of last year?
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.

    That exactly.

    I also like the Djoos to WPG call.

    They don't have the best position in the waiver rankings though. I could see another team claiming him before it gets to WPG. He'd be a decent 6/7 on many teams.

    Fun idea for a thread. I’ll give it a go....

    Edmonton will get one of Ho-Sang, Sprong or Petan - in that order of preference.

    I could see Ottawa grabbing Petan if Edmonton don’t.

    Sprong will go to LA, Detroit, Edmonton or clear.

    I think both goalies DeSmith and Comrie clear.

    Djoos to NJ.

    Baertschi to Minnesota.

    Waivers is an interesting beast because a LOT of teams have done intense budget management for the 5pm cap/roster deadline today.
    I think a lot of teams just pass.

    But I've gotta think a vet GM like Tallon (FLA) will go with either DeSmith or Comrie... and let Montembeault have another year in the A.
    Comrie has the better number ($700k)... but DeSmith is the more NHL-tested player ($1.25m).

    FLA is a very interesting team, IMO, for today's waivers..
    Currently, capfriendly has them at $80.02m... but that's with 12F-7D-2G: 21. They've got two spare spots.
    Most teams will roster 14F... and the $1.48m is just enough to bring up two $700k (min.NHL) players like Greco & Hunt.
    Greco has been up/down, suggestive that FLA will bring him up... but is forward-thinking about this kind of waiver-situation with a G2.
    That's what makes me think they'll be in on a waivered-goalie.

    Almost NOON (EST)!!!

    Here comes the moment of truth. This is almost as exciting as trade deadline day.
