Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC
McIlrath (NYR) & Paajarvi (STL) on waivers

McIlrath is interesting as he is a type of defenceman that the Flames don't have in their system (that is close to NHL ready). Rangers were reportedly trying hard to trade him before being forced to waive him.

Larry Brooks @NYP_Brooksie
Even with Jooris eligible for IR, Rangers weren't going to keep 8 defensemen...hence, McIlrath on waivers...probably 50/50 on claim.
