Yeah keeping Hanley is very confusing, that is a player with almost no value to the club from an asset perspective. Only thing I can think is that they want a spot to pick up a player on waivers themselves and are just using him to hold the spot. Though we could still waive Rooney if a young centre is made available.
Expect there will be a bunch of 23/24 year olds with some upside hitting the wire in the next week.
Pelletier could sneak through for sure, a winger and with his track record is only going to be enticing to a rebuilding team that's actually committed to the rebuild and OK taking some losses.
Hopefully they don't lose him, he looked like a very good player at the NHL level before he got hurt.
