Three players have hit the waiver wire on Monday in the NHL, including one who is having his contract terminated. Alexander Volkov, who has his name on the Stanley Cup as a member of the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2020, has come to an agreement with Anaheim to end his contract. According to reports out of Russia, he already has a deal lined up with SKA St. Petersburg of the KHL. Volkov played in the SKA system before coming to North America.
Meanwhile, The New York Islanders have placed Cory Schneider on waivers in order to send him to the AHL. This likely means fellow goaltender Semyon Varlamov is ready to return from injury. Varlamov has not yet played a game in the 2021-22 season.
The Detroit Red Wings have placed forward Kyle Criscuolo on waivers and he will report to Grand Rapids unless grabbed by another team before the deadline of 2 PM ET on Tuesday. Criscuolo has not played in the NHL since the 2017-18 season with the Buffalo Sabres.
