Another Oiler?s top-5 pick about to be thrown into the wood chipper for no reason
herman said:Plug him onto Tavares' wing if can swing a deal for him, until Matt Knies reaches prime time.

It's crazy how Tolvanen was once considered one of the top prospects in the league, to the point where many felt like he'd be a massive addition to the Preds playoff team back in 2018 when he first came to the NHL after his KHL season ended. He's kinda been a very under the radar bust. Wonder if another team can salvage anything there.

So Tolvanen went through 2/3 of the league before he was taken.
herman said:Yep. Once highly touted scorer relegated to 4th line wing, still scoring more now with limited minutes. I can see why the top 5 on the waiver list might be looking to not score goals, but he is also free deadline draft pick fuel if too successful. Some bubble contenders are short on cap space. Seattle did well to take advantage.

There are some wrinkles to trading a player claimed off waivers that season. If any other teams put in claims, they?d have to pass on him for a trade to go through. If he?s doing well, any team who put in a claim and in the playoff hunt would take him for free.

Wait the what? I have not heard of this wrinkle!
