Summary
Anaheim put Chris Kreider on waivers Wednesday to terminate his contract, a move that would make the veteran winger an unrestricted free agent if he goes unclaimed.
Reports cited in the latest coverage say Kreider may not report to just any claiming team and instead wants to return to the East Coast, which could discourage a waiver claim.
The 34-year-old still produced 50 points last season, making his sudden availability notable even as his preferred destination remains unclear.
Kreider is expected to clear waivers Thursday; if he does, attention will quickly shift from the termination process to free-agency speculation.
