Around SBN: Jon Jones Arrested on Suspicion of DUI

Trent Whitfield placed on waivers

by Stanley Cup of Chowder on Jan 5, 2011 6:22 PM EST

Fluto Shinzawa of The Boston Globe is reporting that the Bruins have placed forward Trent Whitfield on waivers. Whitfield has been on Long-Term Injured Reserve all season with an Achilles's tendon injury. Teams will have until noon on Thursday to claim the injured 33 year-old depth forward. If Whitfield clears waivers, he will be assigned to the Providence Bruins. I have not heard any updates on Whitfield's health, but the prognosis this summer was that he would likely miss most (if not all) of the '10-'11 season.

I had forgotten he was on the team entirely. He’s done well for the B’s when healthy, so I agree, hopefully he sees some more NHL time at some point.

So what's the corresponding move going to be?

Only one reason to put him on waivers right? To clear a spot for someone else?
Any ideas?

He was on LTIR so we was not really taking up a roster spot.
