If Perry got Waived and Dubas claimed him that would be pretty funny.

Cause people were saying it was a mistake to choose simmonds over him well with that we would have both

but lets be real we always got something to complain about

It doesn't matter, every team is going to be risking guys on waivers, if you lose one of them you could probably claim a similar guy from some other team.

The point of signing them is to have them on the Taxi Squad. If they get claimed then the team that claims them has to have them on their squad or they will end up in Montreal. It gives us the upper hand.
