All Montreal Hockey has no direct affiliation to the Montreal Canadiens, NHL or NHLPA
Several other players placed on waivers in the NHL, and the Canadiens are still in a good position
Today's NHL waiver wire featured the availability of 14 players, yet one notable absence has caught the attention of many-Jakob Pelletier, who was widely expected to be on the list.
Despite this, there were several moves across different teams, including the addition of six players from the Dallas Stars.
Here is the complete list of players placed on waivers today:
- Dansk (ANA)
- Tynan, Wagner (COL)
- Capobianco, Hellberg, Hughes, Lind, Petrovic, Pettersson (DAL)
- Kiersted (FLA)
- Jones (MIN)
- Mackey (NYR)
- Hayden, Mahura (SEA)
- Tynan, Wagner (COL)
- Capobianco, Hellberg, Hughes, Lind, Petrovic, Pettersson (DAL)
- Kiersted (FLA)
- Jones (MIN)
- Mackey (NYR)
- Hayden, Mahura (SEA)
Among these names, Josh Mahura stands out as one of the more intriguing options for teams seeking depth on defense. At 26, Mahura was a third-round pick by the Anaheim Ducks in 2016 and spent last season with the Florida Panthers. In 191 NHL games, he has tallied 45 points, and his experience combined with his defensive reliability makes him an appealing player for teams looking to strengthen their blue line.
As for the Montreal Canadiens, GM Kent Hughes still holds one of the top five priorities when it comes to claiming players off waivers. While he has previously mentioned the possibility of using this advantage, it appears no player has piqued his interest just yet.
It will be interesting to see if Hughes reconsiders in the coming days, especially if specific needs arise before the start of the regular season.
