After spending seven-plus years with the organization that drafted him, Nicolas Aube-Kubel is no longer a Flyer.
The Flyers placed Aube-Kubel on waivers on Friday in anticipation of Kevin Hayes being activated off LTIR and making his season debut. There were a few forwards to choose from, including Patrick Brown and Zach MacEwen who the Flyers claimed off waivers last month. However, the Flyers decided to cut bait on Aube-Kubel.
Aube-Kubel was claimed off waivers by the Colorado Avalanche and, according to Frank Seravalli, there were a handful of teams poking around on him.
