Description

Habs get the 1st pick of all players placed on waivers to start the 2022-23 season
I think the Habs should focus on picking up a right shot defenseman to give us deeper depth at that position
This would allow Montreal to leave Guhle and Barron in the AHL as the top pair

Name Team Age Height Games AHL Stats
Raddysh TB 26 6'0 61 7-18-25
Gawanke Win 23 6'1 65 10-26-36
Priskie Buf 26 6'0 54 8-23-31
Kovacevic Win 25 6'4 62 11-19-30
Allard LA 24 6'1 51 4-11-15

I realize that the defense is still bad but I think it would be important to add a young right shot defenseman to the depth chart

Who do you think the Habs should grab off waivers?
and
How many of these 5 players do you think will actually be placed on waivers?

Are there any young right shot defenseman that might go on waivers that I missed?

I prefer Gawanke, I wonder if Winnipeg will trade him or try to slip him through waivers?

Waivers can be a good thing but to rely on a roster player from them says something. There is a reason these guys were in the AHL all of last year

Well we do have Wideman
But I think since we have this opportunity to have the first pick at waivers that we should pick up a player who could be useful to our team in the future

I'd hate for the Jets to lose either guy but especially Gawanke, doubt they'll give him a chance anyway though.

Honestly the best players who go onto waivers are normally goalies. Here is a list of players who have gone on waivers and if you just scroll through, a lot of notable goalies go on waivers

TB would say thank you very much because unless you keep him up on the big club. TB just claims him back and doesn't need to waive him again like Barre-Boulett and Seattle last year . You can't claim him and send him to Laval without waivers
