Re: waivers

There is a wide misunderstanding about waivers on CP. With the new waiver rules, marginal players are more valuable having past through waives than they are before. This is because a player who is picked up on waivers MUST be kept on the NHL roster for 30 days (I think that's it). If the player has passed through waivers, the club has more flexibility and is not worried about losing the player. We have seen many of these transactions this year, where a player passes through waivers and is then traded.
