[quote=Suburban Rhythm;1608554]And he's cleared...I doubt he is actually sent to WBS in the AHL. He'll be recalled soon, with hopes someone grabs him on re-entry waivers. I can't imagine who would. He's due $1.75M this year...so whatever the prorated portion of that is now... [quote]

Clearly your imagination has underestimated Don Waddell's penchant for overpaying guys who are well past their prime.

The Atlanta Thrashers claimed right winger Mark Recchi off re-entry waivers from the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday. The former all-star veteran had signed a one-year deal with the Penguins but received little ice time on a team dominated by younger players. He is scheduled to report to the Thrashers on Sunday. The Thrashers do not need to make a roster move, but are expected to do so in a few days.
