Sabres place Swedish defenceman on waivers
According to CapFriendly, the Buffalo Sabres have placed Swedish defenceman Lawrence Pilut on waivers for the purpose of assigning him to the American Hockey League.
Pilut, 26, has appeared in 17 games for the Sabres this season, recording three points (one goal, two assists), no penalty minutes and is a minus-four. Meanwhile, in three games for Buffalo's AHL affiliate in Rochester, he has two assists.
The Tingsryd native signed with the Sabres back in 2018 as an undrafted free agent following several seasons in the Swedish Hockey League. He spent the 2018-19 and 2019-20 seasons with the Sabres organization, before heading to Russia for the next two years. He returned to Buffalo during the summer, signing a one-year contract.
