David Pagnotta: When he was placed on waivers, Montreal Canadiens Karl Alzner did get some interest. Heard that the Dallas Stars, Toronto Maple Leafs, New York Islanders and Colorado Avalanche were among the teams that reached out to the Canadiens. The Canadiens would have to take back a player as well as retain salary.
Some teams believe that Alzner doesn’t fit into the Canadiens system and that a change of scenery could help Alzner. His salary cap hit and money would need to make sense for the team that is trading for him.
