Flames Mason Raymond and Brandon Prust on waivers.

Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC
Prust (VAN) and Raymond (CAL) on waivers

Raymond to the AHL will clear the way for the Flames to activate Ferland off IR

Flames pick up Prust and Canucks pick up Raymond.

Wonder if Montreal would pick up Prust to see if it gives them a shot in the arm.

Why would we need Prust when Ferland and Bouma are younger, better versions of him?

With Raymond having another year on his deal - it would be pleasing. But no one is going to take Raymond.

Prust is basically Bollig at this point. + the drama he brings with his antics. But seeing that he's been given up on twice in less than a year I'm not sure he can still contribute.

I think he definitely does this time, if he doesn't get claimed.

Don't want him, but has Prust been that bad? Who are they making room for?

So it looks like Granlund will stick around with the big club a while longer.

Kinda dissapointing...and not the fact that Raymond is on waivers. It's the fact that it isn't Bollig, or even just Granlund going down. I feel like those two are more dead weight than Raymond.

Basically it just proves that we have a lot of improvement left to make on this team.

Wonder if he really gets sent down. Hard to see the team eating another year on his deal so if does get sent down, I would assume he gets bought out in the summer.

What a waste. His signing was bad from the outset but he should have been better than this.

Hard to figure out why. He's been better than Raymond, but that is still damning with faint praise. Would rather see someone like Grant up in his place.
