Here is what some posters said at the time he was placed on waivers:
"Crossing fingers Morton and Kuz are not claimed. They have the potential to be back up very soon."
"I could see Morton and Kuznetsov getting claimed, similar to Schwindt and Valimaki. They will be serviceable bubble NHL guys"
"50/50 chance Kuznetsov clears."
"But it is a gut-punch to risk losing Kuz for Bean, Morton for Kirkland."
"I am a little worried about Kuz and Morton, I thought they were ahead of Solo/Miro and Kirkland."
"I'm not comfortable exposing Kuznetsov to the waiver wire. He's the kind of bargain bin pick up the Oilers need. He's right there in terms of being a full time NHL player. In my estimation his training camp overall was pretty great."
"Solo and Kuznetsov looked like they worked well together last night. It'd be interesting to see them together as a bottom pairing in the NHL"
