BREAKING: Two Players Hit the Waiver Wire

In breaking news, two players on different teams have just hit the waiver wire, according to this NHL insider.

Brown, having yet to record a point or solidify his place on the Bruins roster, makes sense to have been placed on waivers. Mermis, on the other hand, is interesting. The defenseman has played 13 games for the Wild this year and has recorded 2 goals and 3 assists, with a minus-1 rating.

We will see if Mermis clears waivers, or if a team desperate for a defenseman will take a shot on him.
