The Capitals claimed Nicolas Aube-Kubel on waivers from the Maple Leafs.

Aube-Kubel failed to register a point in six games in the Maple Leafs' bottom-6. He's heading to his fourth team in under a year, moving from Philadelphia to Colorado via waivers on November 13th, 2021. He signed with the Maple Leafs this summer and was claimed by Washington on Saturday. He will help replace Carl Hagelin, who hasn't played this season and Beck Malenstyn, who's out 6-to-8 weeks with a broken finger.

The Flyers have claimed Kieffer Bellows off waivers from the Islanders.

Bellows was the No.19 overall pick in the 2016 NHL draft but had a hard time finding a permanent spot in the Islanders lineup. He appeared in 45 NHL games with them last season, scoring six goals and 13 assists (19 points). The 24-year-old will help replace James van Riemsdyk, who is out long-term with a hand injury.

The Flyers have claimed Lukas Sedlak on waivers from the Avalanche.

Sedlak came back to North American after three years in the KHL and was a plus-1 in his first three games with the Avalanche. He was waived on Tuesday and is headed to Philadelphia after being claimed on Wednesday. Sedlak will likely replace Jackson Cates in the Flyers' bottom-6 moving forward.

Jonas Johansson was claimed by the Colorado Avalanche after being placed on Waivers by Arizona Tuesday

The 27-year-old Swedish netminder returns to the Colorado Avalanche just weeks after being waived and subsequently claimed by Arizona originally. He has struggled in his previous two seasons with the Avalanche amassing a .895 SV% and 2.90 GAA through 17 games played. Due to the Avs reclaiming Johansson, he is eligible to be sent down to the Colorado Eagles of the AHL.

The Ducks have claimed Brett Leason off of waivers from the Capitals.

Leason was a second-round pick (No.56 overall) in 2019 and split his 2022 season between the AHL and NHL. During his time with the Capitals, the 6-foot-5, 218 lbs. winger had three goals and three assists in 36 games. Leason will likely battle Pavol Regenda for a bottom-6 role with the Ducks.

The Jets have claimed Axel Jonsson-Fjallby off of waivers from the Capitals.

Jonsson-Fjallby was a fifth-round pick in 2016 and split his 2022 season between the AHL and NHL. During his time with the Capitals, Jonsson-Fjallby had two goals and two assists in 23 games. He will likely battle with Dominic Toninato and Morgan Barron for playing time in the Jets' bottom-6.

The Blackhawks have claimed Jarred Tinordi off of waivers from the Rangers.

Tinordi was with the Rangers last season but only appeared in seven NHL games, spending most of the year in the AHL (32 GP). The 30-year-old defenseman will provide some toughness and depth to the Blackhawks' blueline, but he likely won't have a regular role early in the season.

The Coyotes have claimed Connor Ingram off of waivers from the Predators.

Ingram was terrific in the AHL a season ago, going 30-17-7 with a 2.70 GAA and .915 SV% in 54 games with Milwaukee (AHL). With the Coyotes, Ingram should have no problem taking over as the No.2 behind Karel Vejmelka and should see a decent workload this season.

Connor Ingram
The Panthers have claimed Josh Mahura off of waivers from the Ducks.

Mahura spent the entire 2022 campaign with the Ducks, scoring three goals with four assists (seven points) in 38 games. The 24-year-old blueliner has a chance to be an immediate everyday blueliner with the Panthers, as he'll battle Matt Kiersted for playing time, most likely on the third pair with Radko Gudas.

Josh Mahura
The Coyotes claimed Juuso Valimaki off waivers from the Flames.

Valimaki was a first-round pick in 2017 and has collected 16 points (3G / 13A) in 82 career NHL games with the Flames. Last season he spent most of the year in Stockton (AHL), where he had 18 points (2G / 16A) in 35 games. In Arizona, he should be able to land a role on the third pairing.

The Senators have claimed Magnus Hellberg off waivers from the Kraken.

With Cam Talbot out five-to-seven weeks, the Senators have claimed Hellberg to serve as their No.2 behind Anton Forsberg to open the season. Hellberg spent the last five seasons in the KHL before joining the Red Wings last April. Overall, he's 2-0-0 with a .869 SV% in five career NHL games with the Predators, Rangers, and Red Wings.
