The San Jose Sharks claimed defenseman Ty Emberson off of waivers after he was placed on the wire on Friday by the New York Rangers. The remaining nine players on waivers from Friday all cleared.



Thomson, 23, was the 19th overall pick for the Senators in 2019, and failed to make the team during his first season of waiver eligibility. The Sens announced on Friday that Thomson, along with Currie, Heatherington and Pilon, would be placed on waivers on Saturday. Thomson has played just 18 NHL games in the past two seasons, with five assists all coming in the 16 games he played in 2021-22. He also played 56 games with the Belleville Senators in the AHL, where he had 7 goals, 26 assists, and 33 points.



Tokarski, 34, is a veteran depth goalie in the NHL who the Sabres signed in free agency. Tokarski played just four NHL games last season with the Pittsburgh Penguins, where he had a 1-2 record and an .897 save percentage, but he did find himself in a consistent role with the Sabres in 2021-22, where he got into 29 games with a 10-12-5 record and an .899 save%. He’s probably best known for his play in the 2014 Eastern Conference Final with the Canadiens, where he took over for an injured Carey Price to keep them in the series with a .916 save% before the Habs were eliminated in six games by the New York Rangers.<div class="injected-ad" data-nn-ad-tech-injection-count="1" data-nn-ad-tech-max-gap="130" data-nn-ad-tech-current-gap="243"></div>
