Description

If no trades can be worked out, and no one else gets injured, waivers and burying contracts it is. TSN suggests that Manning and Petrovic will be the likely candidates to be pushed off the roster.

'The Edmonton Oilers are in a cap crunch, needing to free $1.97 million in space to activate defenceman Andrej Sekera from long-term injured reserve after his conditioning stint. TSN Senior Hockey Reporter Frank Seravalli believes the Oilers' "cleanest option" could be to place both Brandon Manning and Alex Petrovic on waivers and demote both players to the AHL if they clear.'

Petrovic is BAD, he is worse than Hainsey, Leafs wouldnt try to get anywhere near close him

Quite possible, maybe if he could be had for free off waivers a team might take a swing at him in case of multiple injuries in the playoffs, which can happen, but maybe the Leafs have better options in th AHL
