aqua59 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I believe Markstrom can play 10 games in an emergency capacity before he can be claimed if sent down during that 10 game window . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jovocop55 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 not sure why canucks picked up McMillan in the first place... dressed him instead of kassian for one game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tas Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 being traded 3 times in 4 years and playing in only 78 nhl games in 5-6 years since being drafted for someone with that pedigree doesn't ring any alarm bells for those of you hoping to pick up erixon?

Nope. He immediately becomes one of our best young D prospects. He was traded from Calgary because he didn't wanna sign there. Then he was the top prospect included in the Rick Nash trade. Then he was acquired by Chicago for one of their best forward prospects because they needed D depth. If anything it just goes to show that scouts want him, he`s just being buried by teams with too much depth. When he`s finally given a legit shot, I think he`ll shine.

Junkyard Dog Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I wouldn't mind Schlemko or Erixon as of now. Could be an upgrade over Weber and Biega. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOgRook Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I thought from the start that if he couldn't make it in Arizona, then he wouldn't be a fit here. There was no harm in giving him a chance but I'm not sure why JB thought he'd be a fit. If I take the time to respond to your post... At least read it before you respond back to me as I'm not going to repeat myself because you can't read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 which is it? At the time. Now apparently they think they`re good. As far as rolling the dice, that`s a bit dramatic. If he doesn`t work out, we dump him just like with McMillan. No loss, no gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Mind Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 That might have been exactly the point. We claimed someone we thought we could retain regardless. He can also fill in for us if we need him. With our injuries and hope to compete for the Calder too, he's a fine fit. Very well could have been. Although don't the Coyotes have the chance to claim him back to send directly to their farm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Biega maybe, but not Weber. Weber >>>>>> Schlemko and or Erixon. Erixon sucks. only reason for consideration is because of our battered defense.

Pimp C Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 We need to claim Erixon. Big offensive minded D. Send down Biega. If Erixon plays well, trade Weber or Sbisa for a mid round pick. If he sucks waive him. Asset management. Did Erixon clear yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he sucks waive him. Asset management. Did Erixon clear yet? There is one game left before the trade deadline. A game in which he probably won't get a chance to play in given that this team likes players to practice with the team before they slot in. He wouldnt even be a part of the morning skate and there always seems to be visa issues with players going from an American team to a Canadian team. I don't think your plan would work. I'm not even sure if teams can even continue to waive/claim players after the deadline. Given all that, it would appear Chicago might deserve a little credit for the timing of this.

coryberg Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Pretty sure waivers still apply after the deadline. The only stipulation is that the claimed player will be ineligible to play in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
