Three NHL players have been placed on waivers today, including a 1000-plus-game veteran.
As per Chris Johnston of TSN:
''Placed on NHL waivers today: Zach Sanford (NSH),
Magnus Hellberg (SEA) and Wayne Simmonds (TOR).''
Simmonds, 34, has appeared in just four games with the Maple Leafs this season. He has recorded one assist, three shots on goal, three blocks and ten hits. The veteran has skated in 1,023 NHL games, registering 263 goals and 262 assists.
Hellberg, 31, signed with the Seattle Kraken this summer and is now on waivers for the third time this season. He was first claimed from Seattle by the Ottawa Senators and then claimed back by the Kraken when the Senators placed him on waivers.
Sanford, 28, is on waivers for the first time in his six-year career. He won a Stanley Cup with the St. Louis Blues in 2019 but has bounced around teams since. The forward has one goal and one assist in eight games with Nashville this season.
