The Maple Leafs have placed Mark Arcobello on waivers.

Arcobello has yet to record a point in seven games with the Maple Leafs this season. He was placed on waivers multiple time last season, so this is nothing new for Arcobello. If he goes unclaimed, expect him to be assigned to Toronto (AHL).

The Lightning have placed Kevin Poulin on waivers.

Poulin served as Ben Bishop’s backup for the first eight games of the season. He was placed on waivers this afternoon because Kristers Gudlevskis will start tonight and Andrei Vasilevskiy is nearing a return from a blood clot.

The Flames have placed goaltender Karri Ramo on waivers.

Ramo was pulled after allowing four goals on 14 shots last night and has posted a 4.38 GAA and .879 SV% in three starts this season. The Flames opening night starter has been placed on waivers and will either be claimed by another team or be sent to Stockton (AHL). The Flames were already carrying three goalies, so with Ramo now out of the picture they will turn to the duo of Jonas Hiller and Joni Ortio.

The Capitals have placed Sean Collins on waivers.

Collins was a minus-1 while averaged 8:32 TOI in his first two games with the Capitals. Collins has been placed on waivers with the intent to send him to Hershey (AHL). Once he is sent down, the Capitals are expected to recall another forward.

The Bruins have placed Matt Irwin on waivers.

Irwin signed a one-year deal with the Bruins this offseason but has struggled through the first two games of the season. Irwin is a minus-5 while averaging 14:56 TOI. It wouldn’t be surprising if Irwin is claimed by another team--he had 19 points (8G / 11A) in 53 games with San Jose last year.

The Red Wings have placed Danny Cleary on waivers.

It was a bit surprising when the Red Wings re-signed Cleary this offseason considering they have so many young forwards who were on the brink of cracking the NHL roster. So, it is no surprise to see him get waived. Don’t be surprised if he buddy Mike Babcock and the Maple Leafs claim him.

The Maple Leafs have placed Richard Panik on waivers.

Panik, 24, had 11 goals and six assists (17 points) in 76 games with the Maple Leafs last season. Toronto brought in a tonne of depth pieces this offseason which continuously push Panik down the depth chart, to the point where he has been placed on waivers with the intention of sending him to the minors.

The Maple Leafs have claimed Frank Corrado off of waivers from Vancouver.

Corrado, 22, had one goal in 10 games with the Canucks last season and 16 points (7G / 9A) in 35 games with their AHL affiliate in Utica. Corrado is a strong puck-moving defenseman who should spend the year in the NHL after being claimed by the rebuilding Maple Leafs.

The Canadiens have claimed Paul Byron off of waivers from Calgary.

Byron, 26, has been a nice depth piece for the Flames over the last few seasons, but after Zack Kassian was suspended indefinitely on Monday, the Habs claimed Byron from Calgary. Byron had six goals and 13 assists (19 points) in 57 games with the Flames last season.

The Islanders have claimed J-F Berube off of waivers from Los Angeles.

Berube, 24, was claimed by the Islanders as insurance for Jaroslav Halak, who has been battling injury during the preseason. The 24-year-old net minder had an outstanding 37-9-4 with a 2.18 GAA and .913 SV% in 52 games with Manchester (AHL) last season.
