I'm loving that the #3 goalie for EDM is gone. The worst goaltending in the division just got worse. And its not like it couldn't have got much worse either.

Not even worried a little. Carolina has 3 goalies on their roster. They will be waiving one.

I'm shocked, shocked I tell you, that no one tried to take any of the $10M in salary that Vancouver tried to pass through on waivers.

Loui Eriksson ($6M)
Sven Baertschi ($3.36M)

Not a requirement... I'd have to think with the taxi squad that some teams will just use roster spot 21 or 22 for a 3rd goalie (or anyone else they just don't want to expose). It's no different than being on the taxi squad anyway.

In this case though, if they do waive one, it would likely be Reimer - not entirely sure that's "better" for you (do you even have the salary cap room to pick him up?).

UPDATE: As Toonage pointed out, Nedeljkovic placed on waivers - I thought he had already gone through. That's a good "futures" goalie for someone to grab.

Pretty sure that they have to have a goalie on the taxi squad.

If you don't run with three on the main roster yes.

I think that the Canes waive Reimer, and his 3.4M pricetag. Or trade him to NJ.

Thanks for clarifying. I didn’t see that part.

They have already thrown Nedeljkovic on waivers this morning.

I’m sure they are hoping no one sees him as NHL calibre yet but NJ could take a chance.

Oilers.Nation already had an article out 45 minutes after that, that the Oilers should claim him. Desperation is flowing.

Why would you be worried when your overall goal every year is to get the number 1 pick??

I could see maybe them giving a contract for Sparks as their 3rd. Goalie is here in the province and would not need any quarantine, unlike someone that is picks off waivers.

Sparks was assigned to Stockton the other day. I don't know if he has actually gone to California yet or not.

I can see Edmonton Hockey Club giving Sparks a look. What other NHL- experienced, but depth goaltender is still out there at a taxi-squad price point? Mike Condon, maybe?
