Claimed Raphael Lavoie (Edmonton) and Cole Schwindt (Calgary)
Lavoie is an early 2nd rounder from 2019. Hasn’t cracked the NHL full time (all 7 nhl games came last year, no points), but is a pretty solid AHL player.
Schwindt, 2019 3rd rounder by Florida. Was a part of the Tkachuk trade. Has been an okay AHL player, 7 nhl games, no points

Hello. I am a Cole Schwindt expert/enthusiast from Calgary. I’ll tell ya what you need to know.
We obtained Schwindt in the Huberdeau/Weegar/Tkachuk trade two years ago. At the time Brian Burke said that he was close to NHL-ready. Schwindt has spent the vast majority of the past two seasons with the AHL affiliate.
His numbers in the AHL may look underwhelming, but don’t be concerned. The coaching staff has focused on deploying him as a shut-down centre and on the PK. As a result, he gets harder match-ups and has been more concerned about developing a strong two-way game. This was intended to prepare him for the role he was projected to play in the NHL.
Schwindt hasn’t looked out of place in the NHL games that he has played but he isn’t flashy, so it’s hard to notice. Unfortunately, the decision to switch Martin Pospisil and Connor Zary to the centre ice position means that Schwindt was pushed further down the Flames depth chart, ergo… Waivers.
Enjoy Schwindt, I’m glad he’ll get his chance with you guys. However, also don’t be shocked if he isn’t on waivers again later in the year.

You know I still don’t know enough about hockey to have my own informed opinions on stuff like this.
