Canucks and their final roster: Eight players could be victims of the waiver wire
The Canucks have once again shrunk their roster since since Allvin announced that five players had been relegated.
The Canucks have been lucky thus far since only two of the 22 players they cut needed to go through the waiver wire. But this pleasure won't last long, other franchises have already used the tool and today, andnothing less then 23 players were wives for the purpose of assignment.
Canucks and their final roster: Eight players at risk of going through waivers
Given the current Canucks situation, some of the players are at risk of being waived and teams could be very interested in claiming of them. Analyst at Canucks Army, Stephane Roget drew a list of eight and their likeliness of being claimed; it's really intriguing:
1. Nils �man
Chances of Being Waived: Medium
Odds of Being Claimed If Waived: High
2. Mark Friedman
Chances of Being Waived: High
Odds of Being Claimed If Waived: Medium
3. Phil Di Giuseppe
Chances of Being Waived: High
Odds of Being Claimed If Waived: Medium
4. Noah Juulsen
Chances of Being Waived: Low
Odds of Being Claimed If Waived: Very High
5. Daniel Sprong
Chances of Being Waived: Very Low
Odds of Being Claimed If Waived: High
6. Christian Wolanin
Chances of Being Waived: Very High
Odds of Being Claimed If Waived: Very Low
7. Jiri Patera
Chances of Being Waived: Very High
Odds of Being Claimed If Waived: Low-to-Medium
8. Nathan Smith
Chances of Being Waived: Very High
Odds of Being Claimed If Waived: Very Low
Given their performances through training camp, it's fair to assume that Daniel Sprong and Noah Juulsen won't be anywhere near waivers in the next week. Since the camp started, both have exceeded expectations, Spring even intrigued a few top six conversations.
