No, it was updated to 2pm this season. 

Not doubting you..  But don't suppose you have a link to that explaining why they did that.  Seems like a strange thing to do at random.  TIA.

Couldn't find a link w/ a quick search.

There are of course exceptions, but generally after the draft/FA passes in the early offseason, and people say "there's lots of time until the season starts" - it's more so wishful thinking. Most of the time, the roster you see after those days pass end up what we see on the ice to start the year for the most part, and this year has been no exception

That seems painfully stupid.  Hey, it's a pain for 6 or so GMs to be up early enough to waive the guys they want to send down, 9AM is really early <_< , so instead we'll knock 2 hours of travel time out of the day for players trying to reach their new team.

Where exactly is Seattle on the Waiver List?

They had the 3rd seeding for the expansion draft.  Expect that's where they are Testarossa the year on the waiver wire.

KA was asleep at the wheel. Not sure why you let a player like Barre-Boulet slip thru your fingers. It’s not like the Sabres aren’t familiar with his play in Syracuse.

Wanted the kid simply for the fun times @inkman would've had with his name.  That he might have been a useful piece moving forward would've been gravy.  😉

Nylander to Arizona.  LOL.  I guess we won this trade.

Well, they are serious about racing to 32.

Alex can help w/ that effort & be a leader towards it.

lol, true, but to make a good Barre-Boulet you do need seafood so he's in the right town. 

Don't understand why Sabres wouldn't grab this guy. Even in a tank plan this would have been a good zero risk pick up. This team is just dumb.

I don't think you can send him down for the season if you claim him.  Once the S hits the F this year, i think they want the roster flex?

Them waiving Axel Foley and not picking anyone up off of waivers is a real head scratcher. It begs the question, "Why?".

His name is Cody... Cody EAAAAKIN 

Sorry, Any given sunday was on cable on friday night and his name works with that willie beamon song.

Because they like Caggiula, Hayden and Eakin and who wouldn’t really.

Wrong.

If they send him down w/in a certain time frame (IIRC, 1st 30 days or w/ in player's 1st 10 games) then if the original claiming club claims him & lands him they can send him down w/out releasing waivers.  

After the thresholds have been met, waiving him is just like waiving any other player.
