The Detroit Red Wings looked to right a wrong today by reclaiming Martin Frk off waivers from the Carolina Hurricanes.

The CBA has a nice little quirk that allowed the Wings to send Frk down to Grand Rapids without once again placing him on waivers:
13.22 When a Club claims a Player on Regular or Unconditional Waivers, and, subsequently, in the same season it requests Waivers on the same Player and the original owning Club is the successful and only Club making a Waiver claim, then the original owning Club shall be entitled to Loan such Player to a club in another league within thirty days without further Waivers being asked; provided that such Player has not participated in ten or more NHL Games (cumulative) and remained on an NHL roster more than thirty days (cumulative) following such successful claim.
