We had a surprise in the NHL waivers in the last minutes.

Goalie Cal Petersen is now available completely for free, someone who was once considered one of the brightest prospects in the world in goal.

Cal Petersen on waivers

In fact, Robin Lehner had outright placed him in his list of the top five goalies in the world, imagine.

He's slow to blossom, but the potential is there!

"Placed on NHL waivers today: Cal Petersen (PHI)." - Chris Johnston

Petersen, 29 years old, has a career NHL record of 46-44-10, with a 2.96 GAA and a .903 save percentage. He earns 5 million per year until 2025.

What's the connection with Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens? It could provide a big answer regarding a certain Jake Allen.

If Petersen is claimed, it will have a direct impact on the veteran goalie of the Habs and vice versa.

A file to follow, then!
