If they could get a waivers-exempt, B-prospect RD in the 20-23 year range in exchange for Asplund, it has to be worth exploring
- Hank Balling


Obviously I think Asplund can help this team, but if they are so locked in on their wingers that they won't play him, I wouldn't mind a trade. Anything that flips an F for D is good with me. They probably need several of those deals to get things in better balance.

How about Asplund gets on a plane for Seattle tonight and Borgen stays here. Add a pick if you have to

This almost certainly would have been spotted on the central registry. At minimum capfriendly would have had something on it.

Sometimes they don't. Can't tell you why. Notice they don't have Joker active right now. They probably don't know how they did it right now.

I'd love to know why, even it's a fairly meaningless detail.

You're right he isn't active but if you check the depth chart they have him in the lineup

I don't know the rules but if a player is on waivers then I take it he doesn't count towards the active roster

I assumed capfriendly got the whole list of transactions from the league but I could be wrong.

I'm inclined to believe this is what they did, but Id be more sure of that if say, against the Jets, suddenly Clague was rotated out for bryson (I believe he's still exempt)

I highly doubt they get him signed.
- hehateme

Yeah it's a tough one, but I bet they do and you see him in the lineup before the end of the season.

Philly crashed the net all night last night, Seattle doing the same and were having huge problems with it.

Deal

- Hank Balling

Literally what they need. Letting him go after 5 years of development and almost no NHL games was not ideal
