The Penguins have claimed Mark Arcobello off of waivers from Nashville.

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.

The Coyotes have placed Chris Summers on waivers.

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.

The Hurricanes placed Michal Jordan on waivers.

Jordan, 24, is a solid offensive defenseman who has seen power-play time with the Hurricanes, but has failed to record a point in 16 games since his recall. If he clears waivers he will be sent to Charlotte (AHL), where he has two goals and five assists in 15 games.

The Hurricanes placed Zach Boychuk on waivers.

Boychuk, 25, is a former first-round pick (14th overall in 2008) but hasn’t panned out as the Hurricanes would have hoped. He has six points (3G / 3A) in 31 games this season, so they have placed him on waiver with the intent of sending him to Charlotte.

The Jets have placed Julien Brouillette on waivers.

Winnipeg has placed Brouillette on waivers with the intent to send him down to St. John’s. This move is likely good news on the injury front. Zach Bogosian has been practicing as of late and appears close to a return. Brouillette’s return to the AHL would make way for Bogosian to return tomorrow night in Arizona.

The Canadiens have placed Bryan Allen on waivers.

Allen has appeared in just five games with the Canadiens after being acquired from the Ducks. He missed an extended period of time with an illness, but has been a healthy scratch in the last five games.

The Stars have claimed David Schlemko off of waivers from Arizona.

Schlemko has one goal and three assists in 20 games with the Coyotes this season. He has also registered one goal and three assists in two games with Portland (AHL). The 27-year-old blue liner has 50 career points (9G / 41A) in 207 NHL games.

The Sabres have placed Matt Hackett on waivers.

Hackett has not played this season because he is recovering from offseason knee surgery. He is obviously close to being healthy and the Sabres want to send him dow so he can start for Rochester since they have two capable goalies at the NHL level. The question now is will he clear waivers?

The Blues have placed Magnus Paajarvi on waivers.

The move to place Paajarvi on waivers opens the door for the Blues to keep all three goalies (Elliott, Brodeur and Allen) on the roster together for the time-being. Paajarvi has one assist and a minus-2 rating in 10 games this season.

The Ducks have placed Dany Heatley on waivers.

Injury and poor play have limited Heatley to just six games with the Ducks this season. He has no points and a minus-3 rating. The former 50-goal scorer has a rather inexpensive contract and it will be interesting to see if another team takes a chance on him.

The Oilers have claimed Matt Fraser off of waivers from Boston.

Fraser, 24, has registered three goals in 24 games with the Bruins this season. Fraser is a big-body at 6-foot-1, 204 lbs. and plays a physical brand of hockey. As a corresponding move, the Oilers placed Steve Pinnoztto on waivers, so expect Fraser to slide into his spot in the lineup.

The Predators have placed Derek Roy on waivers.

Roy has served as a healthy scratch in the last three games and has now been placed on waivers. He has 10 points (1G / 9A) in 26 games this season. It would be surprising if a team like Edmonton or another team in need of a veteran pivot does not claim Roy.

The Predators have placed Viktor Stalberg on waivers.

Stalberg has not played since October 25th because of a lower-body injury. Since signing a four-year, $12 million contract prior to the 2013-14 season, Stalberg has just eight goals and 10 assists (18 points) in 75 games with the Predators.
