Description

Looks like the Penguins have put Ty Smith on waivers to send him to the AHL. As a Devils fan, I'd love for Fitzy to put in a claim for him. Me personally, I don't think he makes it to Wilkes/Barres. Let me know what you guys think. There's no way his game is that bad that nobody takes a shot on claiming him.

Honestly, I thought he was gonna be our 2nd pair left shot behind Luke Hughes. I still think he is and can be at the very least a top 6 defenseman in the NHL.

I think he can succeed in a Calen Addison role where he quarterbacks a power play and plays sheltered third pair minutes. One team that should definitely put a claim is the Isles, they need power play help. Also, the ink has officially dried in red, Devils won the trade. Shutdown defenseman are very expensive (Ekholm, Chiarot come to mind recently) and that the Devils didn’t need to part with a 1st round pick is very tidy business.
