Goaltender Oscar Dansk was placed on waivers by the Golden Knights on Friday, one day after he started in the team’s preseason victory at Los Angeles.
Dansk, who recorded 17 saves in the 7-2 win, can be claimed by any of the other 30 teams before 9 a.m. Saturday with no compensation to the Knights.
If Dansk clears waivers, he remains under contract with the Knights is expected to be sent to Chicago of the American Hockey League.
By waiving Dansk early in training camp, it is less likely he will be claimed, as most teams aren’t currently in the market for a backup goaltender with limited NHL experience.
