Vancouver Canucks place center on waivers after rocky start
In breaking news, the Vancouver Canucks placed the center Nils Aman on waivers after a rocky start.
This season hasn't exactly been a smooth ride for the Vancouver Canucks. After a nearly perfect start to the 2023-24 season, they can't reach the same level, but things could be worse. As of now, with a 4-2-3 record, they occupy the fourth rank in the Pacific Division.
Tonight, they are set to face the Sharks in San Jose and will look to bounce back from two straight tough losses against the Carolina Hurricanes and New Jersey Devils. Despite what many people think, this won't be an easy game for Vancouver.
The Sharks are currently on a three-game winning streak, even with Celebrini still on the Injury Reserve. They will have a lot of momentum going into tonight's game, and the Canucks will need to be careful.
Patrik Allvin, the Canucks General Manager, made a roster move before the game. Earlier this afternoon, reports indicating that Nils Aman was placed on waivers emerged.
Frank Seravalli and Elliotte Friedman were among the insiders to spread the word on X:
He was drafted 167th overall in 2020 by the Colorado Avalanche. In his career, the 6'2", 24-year-old player scored 25 points in 115 regular-season games, all played as a member of the Canucks.
In 24 hours, we'll know what happens with Aman, but in my opinion, it would be surprising to see a team claim him. Many teams looking for offensive depth don't have the necessary cap or roster space to add a contract at the moment. And with the little they have, they are likely to target more impactful players.
