With John Gibson winning three of five during his call-up and Frederik Andersen set to return from injury, the Ducks have placed Bryzgalov on waivers in order to activate Andersen from IR. Having gone 1-4-1 with a 4.19 GAA and .847 SV%, we might have seen the last of Bryzgalov in the NHL.
Gibbons (knee) has not played since December 18th and the Blue Jackets likely want to send him to Springfield (AHL) but he will need to clear waivers in order for them to do so.
McMillan, 24, was the 85th overall pick in 2008. He is from nearby Richmond, British Columbia, which is just 30 minutes from Vancouver. He had three points (1G / 2A) in 50 games with the Coyotes this season. He has 35 points (14G / 21A) in 163 career NHL games.
McMillan has just one goal and two assists to go along with a minus-18 rating in 50 games this season. Claiming Mark Arcobello off of waivers meant the Coyotes needed to clear a roster spot.
Arcobello will head to his fourth team in five months. Lets hope he has not been unpacking his bags, because he has went from Edmonton to Nashville to Pittsburgh and now to Arizona. Overall he has 15 points (8G / 7A) in 50 games between those teams.
Arcobello has register two assists in 10 games since going to Pittsburgh. If the 26-year-old is claimed off of waivers, it would be his fourth team in just over five months.
Nabokov signed with the Lightning in the offseason, but has not played well, going 3-6-2 with a 3.14 GAA and .882 SV%. Andrei Vasilsevskiy has performed well at both levels, so the Lightning will move Nabby and Vasilevskiy will serve as the backup to Ben Bishop.
The Panthers recalled Alex Petrovic from San Antonio (AHL) so they have placed Olsen on waivers with the intention on sending him to San Antonio while Petrovic is with the big-club.
The Ducks put Robak on waivers to make room to activate Eric Brewer from injured reserve. Robak has just one assist in five games since becoming a Duck.
Galiardi has bounced in an out of the lineup this season. He has served as a healthy scratch in six of the last eight games and has just one goal in 26 games this season. He has been placed on waivers with the intention of sending him to St. John’s (AHL).
Greening, 28, has just one goal in 20 games with the Senators this season. It looks like he is heading to the AHL for the first time since 2010-11, after spending the last four years with the Sens.
Richards has never played an AHL game, but could be headed there now. If he is assigned to Manchester the Kings will get $925K of cap-relief, meaning Richards would represent $4.825M of dead cap space. The Kings will continue to explore trade options.
Richards, 29, has fallen a long way since being drafted 24th overall in 2003. He has a career-high of 80 points in 2008-09, but has registered just five goals and 10 assists (15 points) in 47 games this season. The Kings have reportedly tried trading Richards as of late, but the last trade fell through last night. If someone elects to claim him, he comes with a $5.75 million US cap-hit.
Falk is currently out with a lower-body injury. He has been placed on waivers for the purpose of being assigned to Iowa (AHL).
Arcobello, who was originally traded to Nashville from Edmonton for Derek Roy, was placed on waivers yesterday and claimed by Pittsburgh this afternoon. He will join former Oilers teammate David Perron, who was traded to the Penguins in early January. Arcobello has 12 goals and 19 assists (31 points) in 82 career NHL games.
McMillan, 24, has one goal and two assist in 38 games with Arizona this season. If he clears waivers, he will be assigned to Portland (AHL).
Summers, 26, has registered three assists in 14 games with the Coyotes this season. If he clears waivers, he will be sent to Portland (AHL) where he had nine points (2G / 7A) in 48 games last year.
Arcobello has one goal in four games since being acquired from the Oilers. If he clears waivers, he will report to Milwaukee (AHL).
McGrattan has not played since December 6th. He has no points with a minus-2 rating in eight games. There is a small chance that he is claimed by another team, so expect him to go down to Adirondack (AHL).
