The Carolina Hurricanes have claimed goaltender Anton Forsberg from the Edmonton Oilers after he was placed on waivers Monday.
The Swedish netminder signed a one-year, $700,000 contract with the Oilers in October after the Hurricanes opted to not re-sign him following his one year stint with the organization, where he appeared in three games for Carolina and 27 games with Charlotte.
Forsberg was originally acquired by the Hurricanes alongside Gustav Forsling in a trade with the Chicago Blackhawks for Aleksi Saarela and Calvin de Haan.
Alongside of this announcement, was the news that goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic was placed on waivers.
