#Blackhawks⁠ ⁠place Luc Snuggerud on waivers. Potentially unconditional waivers. Injuries have hindered his development since joining the #IceHogs and he was only able to play 4 games this season.

Yes. This will be for the purpose of a buyout. Really tough luck with injuries for the kid.

This frees up a spot on the 50 man roster. Gives Hawks more flexibilty.

From a Rockford perspective, buying out Snuggerud would give the Hogs 5 defensemen going into the summer:

Hillman
Carlsson
Gilbert
Raddysh
Tuulola

Assume Hillman gets resigned.

This doesn't count Jokiharju who most would expect to be back on the Hawks full time next season and as early as the end of this one.

Don't expect Campbell to be resigned with all of the Hogs listed above will have at least one full season under their belts.

If the Hogs expect to carry 8 on the blueline, my guess of 3 candidates to fill them:

Krys
Beaudin
Mitchell

Possible: Galvas, Shea, Ryzcek (latter 2 as candidates to start in Indy first)

Boqvist should stay in London another year but I could see management wanting to see him in the starting lineup next year which isn't the best thing. So either London or the Hawks for him in 2019-20.

2-1, Arvidsson on the board. It is killing me to root for either one of these skid marks. 3-1, what a period.
