So the 31 other NHL teams have until 2 p.m. Tuesday to claim it. If not, it can be submitted to Laval Rocket.
This is therefore the solution that Kent Hughes has found to manage his surplus of attackers expected with the return of Evgeni Dadonov. The latter is on the injured list because of a virus and can start training again on Tuesday.
On Saturday, Pitlick was left out for the fifth time in 12 games this season. He scored zero points in the seven games he played.
The 25-year-old forward is a regular at waivers, having been called up twice over the past year; first by the Minnesota Wild, then by the Canadiens.
In addition to Pitlick, striker Christian Dvorak is also missing on Monday morning. The team announced a day of treatment in his case. Dvorak appeared to have injured himself in Saturday’s loss to Vegas when he blocked a shot.
The Habs continue their action Tuesday night in Detroit, the city of rock.
