Leo Komarov has been placed on waivers by the New York Islanders. An official reason wasn’t stated by the Islanders for the move, but it’s been 30 days since the last time Leo passed through waivers meaning the Isles could no longer move him on and off the taxi squad at a whim’s notice.
Assuming he clears in 24 hours, the Islanders will have another 30 days (or 10 games played) of roster flexibility with the 34-year-old vet.
