The Toronto Maple Leafs have placed forward Nicolas Aube-Kubel on waivers:

Insider Chris Johnston also reports that Toronto made Aube-Kubel available via trade earlier this week, as he had been a healthy scratch for the past five games.

Aube-Kubel is the only player placed on waivers for November 4, and the most recent player on waivers - Keifer Sherwood - cleared.

According to CapFriendly, Toronto has $0 in cap space, so they cannot afford any dead weight on their roster, especially after the start they have had. Starting goalie Matt Murray is still on the shelf, and they have lost four of their last five. They will take answers where ever they may appear, at this point.
