Starting Goalie Hits Waivers

Today there were many players placed on waivers including many former first-round draft picks and a starting goalie.

Placed on NHL waivers today: Jesper Bosqvist (BOS), Oskar Steen (BOS), Jakub Zboril (BOS), Brandon Biro (BUF), Kale Clague (BUF), Riley Stillman (BUF), Trey Fix-Wolansky (CBJ), Jack Ahcan (COL), Brad Hunt (COL), Cam Dineen (EDM), Philip Kemp (EDM), Brad Malone (EDM) ... Calvin Pickard (EDM), Tyler Madden (LA), Shane Bowers (NJ), Justin Dowling (NJ), Tyce Thompson (NJ), Max Willman (NJ), Denis Gurianov (NSH), Jachym Kondelik (NSH), Chris Driedger (SEA), Cale Fleury (SEA) and John Hayden (SEA).

The Seattle Kraken have placed Chris Driedger on waivers with the intention of sending him to the Coachella Valley Firebirds of the AHL.

Driedger, when healthy, is a starting goaltender in the NHL but he has struggled with his health ever since being selected by the Seattle Kraken in the expansion draft. He is paid like a starter as well being paid $4.5 million this upcoming season.

Hopefully for Seattle, Driedger can prove he is back to his old self and end up coming back up and emerge as the Kraken's starter.
