You’re telling me the 13th-ranked player in the Ottawa Senators’ Top 25 Under 25 is one acquired through waivers? You could say that’s rather peculiar, and you’d be right. What’s even more peculiar, however, is that players of Victor Mete’s age aren’t typically waiver-eligible.
That’s because the Montreal Canadiens’ fourth-rounder from the 2016 NHL Entry Draft, made the team’s opening-night roster just one year after being drafted. Today, he ranks 13th among his draft class in games played.
