The NHL trade deadline is quickly approaching which means teams will now need to sort out last-minute roster moves to attempt to acquire players and or get rid of them.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have gotten a head start as it appears they have placed a former Philadelphia Flyers fan favourite on waivers.
Placed on NHL waivers today: Wayne Simmonds (TOR).

If Wayne Simmonds clears tomorrow, he'll be waiver-exempt through the March 3 trade deadline. That means the #leafs will be able to move him back and forth to the AHL, as needed, while optimizing their salary cap position for deadline acquisitions
Must read on FlyersInsider
Simmonds has been placed on waivers 3 times this season, one can only hope he finds a permanent home and can potentially have a chance at a Stanley Cup. If not, he may consider retirement this off-season due to lack of interest for any teams.
Simmonds (TOR) on waivers. I believe this is a paper transaction
