As the preseason calendar winds down, NHL organizations are making moves to reassign players to the AHL or their junior clubs. Yesterday was a busy day for waivers in the NHL, and Nashville made no exception, placing six players on the wire for purposes of reassignment: Colin Blackwell, Anthony Richard, Alexandre Carrier, Matt Donovan, Troy Grosenick, and Laurent Dauphin. (All six did clear.)
Throughout the afternoon, there was a decent amount of concern at Nashville’s exposure of Anthony Richard and, to a lesser extent, Alexandre Carrier.
