Is the waiver wire to pick up Shore today or tomorrow? Would like him to pass through, but not heart broken if he gets picked up. Think he will pass.

Drew Shore has cleared waivers according to @FriedgeHNIC. Eligible to be assigned to Stockton at any point now. #Flames

Good, he might become useful if the Flames run into a lot of injuries.

excellent - he will really strengthen the C position there, and is a solid call-up option for injuries

Does he need to pass through waivers again on the way back up, or is it just when sent down?

Not a bad lineup. It will be interesting to see how much fan support they will get. The team looks like they will be fairly solid.

Not surprised Shore cleared. He had a very mediocre camp. He has a lot of NHL tools, but hasn't been effective at that level. Still, in the event that a call up is needed for center (which is inevitable with Backlund on the team), he's a dependable option.
You have to wonder how long it will be before Arnold permanently moves past him on the depth chart. He had his camp cut short with a freak dental injury and didn't get a chance to show what he could do. I suspect we'll be seeing Arnold at some point this season.

I don't understand the love for Shore. He's not that much more than Corban Knight was, and he had fallen down the depth chart. To me, Shore really needs to step his game up and assert himself more. That means using that big body and getting to the net more often. That is the only way he'll find his way back to the NHL.

We were hoping he'd be doing stuff like this.
He hasn't, nor has he really contributed a lot to the team to warrant staying either, so no surprise from me.

I've often wondered if a bit of it is the "talk about your prospects/players to try to artificially inflate their value a bit". There is a bit of chatter that Alex Anthopolous with the Jays does this in baseball for example; talk them up, mention them more, play them with the big club here and there, etc...to try and make them have a tiny bit more attractiveness in any potential trade (just in general - not saying one is going to happen in this particular instance).

This. If Shore was the most sought after Flame at the deadline per BT, someone would have picked him up for nothing a few months later.
I am glad we have him for depth, and he certainly would not be the first player to make an impact in the NHL a little later in his career. But for comparison sake, I think we're looking at a Max Reinhart or Corban Knight.

Very rare that players are picked up off waivers this time of year...teams are trying to get their own numbers down
rare maybe the wrong choice...it happens but its easier to sneak someone through at this time of year

The deadline and beginning of a regular season are 2 completley different situations. Teams might have wanted to see what he had for the rest of the season last year. That does not mean they want him in their line-up for an entire year. He also didn't show much this pre-season and other teams scouts probably saw that. Also just because the flames recieved calls on him at the deadline does not mean they were offering anything of substance. For all we know he was being offered 5th/6th round picks or other "meh" prospects.
