NHL News: Lightning-Canes Postponed, Waivers, and Injury Updates

by admin

Lightning-Hurricanes postponed

Frank Seravalli: The NHL has postponed the Tampa Bay Lightning’s home opener on Saturday against the Carolina Hurricanes because of Hurricane Milton.

On Waivers

Elliotte Friedman: Placed on waivers yesterday were Raphael Lavoie (Oilers), Spencer Smallman (Capitals) and Kaapo Kahkonen (Jets).

Chris Johnson: Lavoie is on waivers for the third time in five days. “Lavoie was claimed by VGK on Monday, reclaimed by EDM on Wednesday and finds himself back on the wire now because the #oilers need him to clear in order to send him to the AHL.”

Mike McIntyre: “The #NHLJets have placed G Kaapo Kahkonen on waivers, and not G Eric Comrie as many (including me) suspected. It does allow the club to bank a bit more cap space. Comrie makes $825 K, Kahkonen $1 million. We’ll find out tomorrow if Kahkonen makes it to the #MBMoose.”
