Absolutely asinine.

You're not willing to let go of Lindberg or Carpenter? Guys who keep being scratched every 2 or 3 games?

I bet they are testing if these new guys can tread water so to allow them to make a trade with Pirri for an absolute upgrade.

Hawks brood here (VGK is my B team) -- I've been high on Pirri since 2011, no clue why he can't stick, he's been a plain talent since the rock

Watched him as a Ranger. Started off hot and then disappeared. Scored as much in the first 10-15 games as the rest of the season. When he wasn't scoring he wasn't doing much else.

Maybe he's changed. Good for him if he did.

what an absolutely stupid move - when you call a guy up it's rare that they actually perform and take advantage of the opportunity, yet Pirri does in every way, and they still send him back - shame on you Vegas, POS move.

McPhee literally cannot get out of his own way

GM of the year last year? What a joke

Trades the farm for Tatar, doesn't play him, Packages Tatar with another farm (Suzuki) has to retain salary and trades them for a guy who was to be a FA in a year, then gives that guy (Patches) 7 million

Catches lightning in a bottle with Pirri and Stastny (His Big FA signing) and then waves Pirri for some scrub

Genius.....

Wow, still though can see the club's thought process. Also, wouldn't want him to stay and be a scratch at game time . That being said if he goes down and plays regularly and keeps point total on a upward swing he will probably be up again in this season. It sometimes is just a numbers thing with moving players back and forth.

Waiver rule:
A player does not need to pass through waivers if the player has not been on the NHL active roster for a cumulative 30 days since last clearing waivers, and has not played in 10 or more NHL games. CBA Reference 13.2(b)

He does not need to go through waivers.

From what I hear its only cuz he's waiver exempt. They plan on making a roster trade to bring him back up

You say that like it’d be a bad thing.

I’d gleefully give Vegas my left (frank)ing nut if they’d take Lucic.

Is it conceivable GMGM would take Burakovsky from the Caps for this guy. Maybe with a pick thrown in?
