2SKATES1STICK Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 If we pluck him from waivers I believe he has to be on the roster for the rest of the season, someone please correct me if I am wrong. I think its just you can't claim and trade without offering the player to the other claimers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aladeen Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Yeah if we claim K-Conn from Dallas's waiver and try to send him down at some point during the season via waivers, I think Dallas can re-claim and send him to their AHL team without having to keep him in the NHL. I think its just you can't claim and trade without offering the player to the other claimers. Makes sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amish Rake Fighter Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Yeah maybe Edmonton takes a chance. He's better than Brad Hunt at least, who they waived. I don't know about now but Connauton's Dad used to work for the Oilers' owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absent Canuck Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 From what I have seen he is ok and is still only 24. I dont think we take him but someone else probably will. Cap hit is friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drummer4now Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I still think Dallas kept him on the team and were playing him so much just to rub into our faces on how we lost that Roy baby trade. After they found out he's nothing special this trade is looking neutral for both sides now.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Strome Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I wouldn't have an issue with it. We could use some more prospects on the back end. Let him develop a tad more in Utica to see if he can break through. If you could just send the player to the Ahl then that's exactly what Dallas would do. I think someone will claim him just not us.

Canuck Surfer Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I think its just you can't claim and trade without offering the player to the other claimers. It's pretty straight forward isn't it? He has to CLEAR waivers before anyone can send him to the minors. If we claimed him he would come to our NHL roster. If we want him on our AHL team, we have to put him through the waiver process again. All teams can make a claim any time he is on waivers; including the original. See Zach Boychuck a year or so ago. There might be something about the original team having dibs if he is up on waivers again. But who cares. The point is we cannot claim him to place him in Utica. And we certainly do not need him here. Which lefty D man are we going to drop; Stanton? Sbisa? Dead issue from where I sit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboose Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Have to think the Rangers will take him. He's got to be better than Kaberle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct to a degree. You can't just pick them up and store them in the minors. He would need to be on our roster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2% milk Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 No it was phillippe desrosiers who constantly in qmjhl Has average gaa of 2.75 in his career and.. 900 save percentage Qmjhl is very offensive league but that isn't desirable to me. Besides jack campbell and letholen seem like a solid tendem for a few years. Basically a dud trade for both sides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intoewsables Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Cdc freaking out over trading him for Derek Roy. Shows how badly some people overrate our prospects. No kidding. Connauton was a marginal prospect at the time of the trade, and has done nothing since at the NHL level to show that he's taken a step forward. Getting rid of a quality #6/7 guy in Weber to make room for Connauton, as mentioned earlier in the thread, is absolutely ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
