How does clearing waivers work in regards to timing. So Beaudin cleared waivers once. How long does that last or if he gets called up to NHL and then needs to be sent down to AHL again does that mean he needs to clear again? Thanks.
Might not be correct, but he can play 10 games in the NHL or spend 3p days on the roster before he has to go on waivers. Resets at the start of next season
Sens fans, they've popped up this year and seems most of them don't have a sweet clue. because that's a ****e comment that will get bopped,
Player values actually go up when they clear waivers. We see it every year where a player goes unclaimed then gets traded for a late round pick
Depends. Not every waive is equal. For prospects that's true because the can get proper ice time to develop further...which is what you're talking about. For larger cap hits...it's just proven dead cap
Placing a player on waivers is an admission by his team that said player no longer has any trade value to that team.
If nobody claims him, that player's trade value is wiped out.
Determining which team wins a trade is really that simple.
Also, I see that the Habs' fanbase is out in full force today, which probably explains why the vote is lopsided.
And why I'm being bombarded with all these comments
A player can have a better trade value by having passed waivers, since he can now be assigned to the AHL for the remainder of the season and be waivers exempt for 29 days or 9 games & will not count towards their 23-man roster. The fact Beaudoin passed waivers gives flexibility to the Habs, who can now choose to have him develop a full extra year in their system at the AHL level.
If they had claimed him off waivers, they could have lost him when trying to assign him to the AHL later on.
I know it's not like that on your XBox, but that's the way it actually, truly is.

Contract slots don't matter until you've filled 50.
Montreal is currently at 45.
5 more to go this season.
Fair point, but Hillis was a waste of one. Not taking on an extra one could be a huge benefit come the TD when we will be taking on futures for players

If a player clears waivers, that means he's not wanted by any of the other 31 teams.
It's not a good sign for that player's future in the NHL.
You can spin it however way you want.
But it's really not that complicated.
And I don't have a Xbox.
Be a bit more careful when making flimsy assumptions or somebody might get hurt

Man just stop with the trolling. Him getting unclaimed on waivers means 31 other teams don't think he's an NHL defender, has nothing to do with him as a prospect. His potential doesn't disappear because teams don't claim him.

My BIAS meter just exploded and wake me up, then I understand why by looking at your poor defense. Geez you need to understand a tad more the game. Value are not always vanishing with waiver market. Teams and contracts situation like a logjam can create such dilemma ... You need to look through the nuance ... Oh and also Chicago is imploding this year, so value are no where near their target point.

A team with a poor defence would not be on a 4 game winning streak right now.
Geez, you need to understand the game a tad more, turn off your "bias meter" and go back to sleep.
Beaudin's value would not have vanished entirely if somebody claimed him.
Neither Montreal nor Chicago are anywhere near 50 SPCs, so there's no "logjam".
I thought Montreal had a logjam of LDs with Edmundson, Matheson, Guhle, Harris, Xhekaj, Norlinder, Fairbrother, Struble, Hutson, etc, etc.
What are they doing trading for another LD that could have been claimed off waivers??
You need to realize how spot on I am.
We need another PMD at AHL level so we can send Trudeau in junior ... Fairbrother is done for the reminder of the season ... Strubble and Hutson are at minor level and won't be ready to jump this season, so we are filling the gap!
I know you are mourning you grief on Norris season ending injury but you can't come here trying to teach the biggest fan bas of the sport ... try with Arizona or with your mayor !!

If a player clears waivers, that means no team wants to commit to 30 days right that moment to that player, which is entirely different from no team willing or interested to committing to that player at all.
Indeed that is not a pretty sign for a player's future, but the distinction is important. In all cases, Habs get a potential NHLer in their system (even though the likelihood of him being a quality player or having a long career are low) in exchange for a ECHLer & without taking a contract towards the 50 limit. You're the one spinning it the way you want :P

That doesn't change the fact that you could have had Beaudin for free 3 weeks ago.
The injury to Norris has nothing to do with it.
And you can't come here and expect everybody to have the same opinion as you.
