Multiple players placed on waivers as teams begin to cut cap space

With the regular season only a couple of weeks away teams have already begun to trim their rosters. These players are all likely to be assigned to teams American Hockey League affiliates if they clear. Teams are already preparing what they're opening day rosters will look like.

First day of waivers is today: among the names are Brad Hunt and Spencer Smallman (COL), Richard Panik (NYI) and Michael Carcone (ARIZ).

Hunt and Smallman mark the 2nd and 3rd players cut by the Avalanche as they released Alex Galchenyuk yesterday. It is unlikely any of these players are claimed as teams continue to look for depth options on the upcoming waiver wire.
