Pettinger and Krog Clear Waivers
Matt Pettinger and Jason Krog Clear, Cowan to the AHL
Both Players Pettinger and Krog were cut by the Canucks and have cleared waivers and will now play for the Manitoba Moose. They will be paid their full NHL salaries, however the salary will not count against the Canucks salary cap, unless of course they are brought back up to the Canucks. If brought back up, the Canucks would have to again put them on re-entry waivers, where any team in the league could pick them up. If this was to occur, the team picking them up would only have to pay half the players salary, with the remainder of the salary counting against the Canucks salary cap. I think it’s a ridiculous system but that’s the way it is!
Jeff Cowan, also cut by the Canucks, has been placed on the roster of the AHL’s Peoria Rivermen.
