Also would not be shocked if he's put back on waivers and the Flames pick him up.

A lot of GOOD players? Really?
Seems like a lot of marginal players get passed on waivers and occassionally guys can improve and turn their game around, but the vast majority of guys that are on waivers are not good players and are both on and passed on for a reason.
And again if Paul Byron is an NHLer why is he not playing in the NHL and why do teams keep passing when they have a free shot at picking him up? If the answer they already have guys like him then maybe it is time to evaluate if he is really an NHLer.
