Andreas Johnsson has cleared waivers; had his contract terminated and signed with Skelleftea AIK (SHL).

Johnsson had his contract terminated after clearing unconditional waivers. The 28-year-old Sweed had difficulty finding consistency at the NHL level despite showing flashes of high-pedigree play throughout his career. He has 116 points (48 G / 68A) in 259 career games. He has now signed with Skelleftea IK (SHL).

Jack Campbell has been placed on waivers for the purpose of assignment.

After 41 unimpressive games with the Oilers over the past two seasons, posting a 3.53 GAA and .886 SV%, the team has placed Campbell on waivers for assignment. The Oilers, who were largely considered to be Stanley Cup contenders to start the season, are off to a dreadful start, winning only two of their first 11 games (2-8-1). The Oilers will likely recall Calvin Pickard from Bakersfield (AHL) once Campbell clears waivers and will turn to Stuart Skinner for starting duties in the interim.

Nashville has claimed Liam Foudy from Columbus off waivers.

Foudy was placed on waivers by the Columbus Blue Jackets on Friday and claimed by Nashville Saturday. The 23-year-old was Columbus' 2018 first round draft pick (18th overall) and has played 90 games across five sporadic seasons with the Blue Jackets. Foudy had seven goals, seven assists, 67 SOG, eight PIMs and a -26 plus/minus in 62 games with Columbus in 2022-23.

Anaheim has claimed Ross Johnston off waivers from the New York Islanders.

Johnston was placed on waivers by the Islanders on Monday and claimed by Anaheim on Tuesday. The 29-year-old bruising left-winger carries an annual cap hit of $1.1 million and is expected to be an intimidating presence in the Ducks bottom-six. He had two assists, 37 PIMs, two SOG, and a -1 plus/minus in 16 games played with the Islanders in 2022-23. He leaves New York after seven seasons, nine goals, 15 assists, and 283 PIMs through 134 career games played.

Ottawa has claimed Lassi Thomson back from Anaheim a week after waiving him.

Thomson has experienced a unique week on the waiver wire. After being originally placed on waivers last week by Ottawa, he now finds himself back with the Senators after being placed on waivers again by Anaheim. Thomson, the 19th overall pick in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft, played 56 games last season for the Belleville Senators (AHL), recording 33 points (7G / 26A) in 56 games.

Calgary has claimed A.J. Greer from the Boston Bruins.

Greer played his first full NHL season last year, tallying 12 points (5G / 7A) and 114 PIM in 61 games for the Bruins. The former 39th overall pick of the Colorado Avalanche in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft will likely serve as a depth forward this season for the Flames.

Colorado has claimed Ivan Prosvetov from the Arizona Coyotes.

Prosvetov provides some much-needed organizational goaltending depth for Colorado, especially with the immediate health of Pavel Francouz (groin) being uncertain. Prosvetov has played most of the last four seasons for the Tuscon Roadrunners of the AHL but has seen some NHL action over that time as well. Last season, he played seven games (4-3-0) for the Arizona Coyotes, recording a 3.98 GAA and .880 SV%. With Justus Annunen being assigned to the AHL, it appears that Prosvetov will begin the season as the Avalanche backup goalie.

Pittsburgh has claimed John Ludvig off waivers from Florida.

Ludvig was the 69th overall selection of the Florida Panthers in the NHL Entry Draft in 2019. He is unlikely to see much, if any, playing time in the NHL this season but adds some nice organizational depth for the Penguins' defensive core. Last season, Ludvig played 54 games for the Charlotte Checkers of the AHL where he recorded 17 points (3G / 14A).

The Golden Knights claimed Grigori Denisenko off waivers from the Panthers.

The 23-year-old forward was the Panthers 2018 first-round pick (15th overall) and had three assists, four PIMs and a -5 plus/minus in 18 games with Florida in 2022-23. He has played sporadically across three seasons with the Panthers, picking up seven assists and eight PIMs in 26 career NHL games played.
