Big surprise on NHL waivers involving three players: it has just been confirmed for the tough guy from the Sens Zack MacEwen
There has been action on the NHL waivers in the last minutes and on this day after the SuperBowl.
First, we have a surprise as the Ottawa Senators put another tough guy on waivers!
Zack MacEwen, who has had his conflicts with Michael Pezzetta and Arber Xhekaj in the past, is available absolutely for free. He will likely be claimed because he is one of the most feared players in the NHL.
