Default Justin Kirkland Placed on Waivers

As per Pat, very cheap salary but don't see him being claimed based on performance this year.

Kirkland will clear with ease. Who will they bring up?

Am i missing something with Stromgren as to why he has not got a single game in yet? 3rd pro season and year over year improvement. Is he good defensively/all around?

Agreed, him over Kerins and Morton but luckily neither got claimed so no harm done.

I think this is probably Morton's chance here.

Morton or they realize they need to use the 4th line differently and it's Kerins

I've been to one Wranglers game this year and Morton looked great.

I think Sharan will be stapled to the box for at least a couple of games.

Time to Hunt? There are so many Wranglers deserving of a call up that it will be interesting to see which way they go. One of Stromgren and Morton makes the most sense, unless it's Gridin in an attempt to jump start the offense.

Seems like the precursor to bringing up Keirns.

There were news about 3 weeks back saying he was skating on his own. That said, when Parekh got injured Huska was asked about Pospisil, and he had no updates.

I really like Sam Morton. Once he is up, he's never going back because he will work harder than everyone, which is what you want for the 4th line

After preseason I thought Kerins or Morton deserved that 4th line spot but they gave it to Kirkland due to his unique circumstances and early season heroics that were derailed by the injury.

If he's not a shootout wizard or providing other intangibles like shot blocks and timely goals then it was a matter of time.
