Can’t save himself this time. Stockton needs a forward too so he’ll get good minutes.

Is this the shakeup?

At least they've identified they don't need this guy.

It's time. He's barely played all year and hasn't had any impact when in the lineup. Little has changed since he was on waivers earlier.

I just hope there's no downturn in Dougie's play as a result. There shouldn't be obviously, but people are human and these things can affect mood and motivation.

Another move coming perhaps? They really didn't need to waive him just yet did they?

Smells like a shakeup!

Of course the "Dougie needs Freddie" conspiracy means that Dougie is on the move!

He last cleared waivers on November 2. A player must clear every 30 days or 10 games before they can be assigned.

Lack out - giving Rittich some assurance
Prout in - adding urgency to Stone's game (no one cares about bart)
Mangiapane up - rewarding good AHL play, possibly showcasing him
Hamilton down - opening up a roster spot

They'll have 13 forwards after Hamilton clears. Slowly but surely failed experiments are being removed (Lack / Glass / Hamilton), Bartkowski, Lazar and Stajan aren't that far behind.

I think a top 6 player trade is around the corner as well.

Good for him. He needs some ice time. Which he will get in Stockton or somewhere else if he gets claimed.

I'm guessing that he just wasnt playing so they're sending him down to get some minutes.

It's possible I'm just a crackhead, but doesn't "on waivers" just mean being sent down?

It's a requirement before a player can be sent down. Another team could conceivably claim him before he's assigned.
