Winnipeg claims forward off waivers from Seattle

According to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman, the Winnipeg Jets have claimed forward Karson Kuhlman off waivers from the Seattle Kraken.

The move comes one day after the Kraken claimed former first-round pick Eeli Tolvanen off waivers from the Nashville Predators. As a result, the Kraken decided to put Kuhlman on the waiver wire, with the hope he would clear and then be assigned to the Coachella Valley Firebirds of the American Hockey League.

Kuhlman, 27, appeared in 14 games this season for the Kraken, recording three points (one goals, two assists), no penalty minutes and was a plus-three.

In other related news, Arizona Coyotes defenceman Dysin Mayo has cleared waivers and has been assigned to the AHL's Tucson Roadrunners.
