As\u00a0NHL\u00a0teams trim their rosters before the regular season,\u00a0The Athletic\u2019s Corey Pronman and Harman Dayal will provide analysis of the top players placed on waivers. Once a player is waived, the rest of the league has 24 hours to put in a claim for him. If a player goes unclaimed, they can be assigned by their team to the minor leagues.<\/p>\n
Friday, Sept. 26Ivan Fedotov, G, Columbus Blue Jackets<\/p>\n
Columbus recently acquired Fedotov from the Flyers for a late-round draft pick. Fedotov has struggled mightily in the NHL after a great KHL career. He\u2019s a massive goaltender, but his quickness has been an issue at the NHL level. He could be a serviceable depth option in net for a team, but even that\u2019s not a guarantee. \u2014 Pronman<\/p>\n
Other players on waivers: Liam Foudy (Islanders), Julien Gauthier (Islanders), Cole McWard (Islanders), Gavin Mitchell (Islanders), Kevin Connaughton (Mammoth), Calle Rosen (Capitals) and Spencer Smallman (Capitals)<\/p>\n
