Once again, we are witnessing an extremely busy day in the NHL. Indeed, twenty-nine players, including two former members of the Montreal Canadiens, were placed on waivers this afternoon.

They are defensemen Victor Mete (2017-2018 to 2020-2021) and Corey Schueneman (2020-2021 to 2022-2023), who played with the Tricolore not too long ago. Unfortunately for them, they were unable to secure a spot with their respective teams, and will therefore have to go to the AHL if they are not claimed by another team.

Here is the complete list of players who have been placed on waivers:

- Anaheim Ducks: Glenn Gawdin

Arizona Coyotes: Travis Barron, Cameron Crotty, Jan Jenik, Steven Kampfer, Justin Kirkland, John Leonard, Ryan McGregor, and Matt Villata

Boston Bruins: Kyle Keyser

Calgary Flames: Clark Bishop, Oscar Dansk, Ben Jones, and Colton Poolman

Colorado Avalanche: Wyatt Aamodt and Corey Schueneman

Dallas Stars: Gavin Bayreuther, Nick Caamano, Fredrik Karlstrom, and Derrick Pouliot

Florida Panthers: Rasmus Asplund, Lucas Carlsson, and Gerald Mayhew

New Jersey Devils: Kyle Criscuolo

Philadelphia Flyers: Louis Belpedio, Adam Brooks, Rhett Gardner, Cooper Marody, and Victor Mete.

By the way, the Tricolore might have to place players on waivers very soon as the current roster still has 28 players, thus exceeding the NHL's limit of 23 players allowed to start the year.

Certainly, Kent Hughes will have important decisions to make in the coming days, and we can expect roster moves as soon as tomorrow as the training camp comes to an end!
