Waiver Move
According to TSN, the Coyotes placed defenseman Garrett Stafford, forward Alexandre Bolduc, and forward Mathieu Beaudoin on waivers. As reported Thursday, the three were assigned to the Portland Pirates Training camp.
The 25-year-old scored 21 goals and 41 points between the Springfield Falcons and Connecticut Whale of the AHL last season. He could be one of the first callups for the team but likely will hold no fantasy value.
Considering he failed to impress in training camp, the Rangers likely get the Russian defender through waivers. Valentenko scored five goals and 17 poiints through 79 games with the Connecticut Whale last season. He should be called up at some point this season.
