Former Maple Leafs Defenseman Emil Andrae Is Back On NHL Waivers

The Columbus Blue Jackets have placed a pair of players on waivers on Wednesday. Following their 7-2 win over the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday, the Blue Jackets have placed left winger Danton Heinen and defenseman Emil Andrae on waivers.

Andrae was a member of the Toronto Maple Leafs for a very short while. He was acquired by Leafs GM John Chayka from the Philadelphia Flyers in the Joseph Woll and Simon Benoit trade.

From that point, he then participated in the Maple Leafs' training camp, and played two pre-season games for the club, too.

However, a day before Toronto's season opener, he was traded to the Blue Jackets in the package that saw Matthew Knies get dealt to Columbus with Kirill Marchenko coming the other way.
