Nobody predicted that the Detroit Red Wings would�waive Jakub Vrana to create room for Robby Fabbri's return. According to Chris Johnston, Elliotte Friedman, and a number of other NHL analysts, the young forward, who had just just passed to the next round of the Player Assistance Program, has been placed on waivers today.

This comes as a surprise considering that Vrana was just acquired by the Washington Capitals in exchange for top player Anthony Mantha years ago.
Vrana, who was selected 13rd overall in the NHL draft in 2014, recently encountered a barrier when he �enrolled�in the league's players assistance program, which helps athletes who are dealing with addiction, mental illness, or family issues.
Given that Vrana is just 26 years old and has promising numbers, we hope that another team will be able to give him a chance to flourish.
