It wasn’t only regular cuts Claude Julien spoke of when he said there would be subtractions from the training camp roster. After releasing Joel Ward from his profession tryout, sending Nick Suzuki to Owen Sound and Michal Moravcik and David Sklenicka to the Laval Rocket, the Montreal Canadiens have placed five players on the waiver wire.
With Michael McCarron, Rinat Valiev, Brett Lernout, Hunter Shinkaruk, and Byron Froese on waivers, the total of players at training camp is now at 33.
