Emerson Etem has not yet been traded by NYR. Trade could happen today. Then again, might not (insert snide remark here). NYR working at it.

Etem requires waivers to go to AHL so that’s not likely unless it’s on conditioning stint. A few teams have been talking to NYR about Etem.

If he’s traded by NYR, a logical landing place could be VAN. Coach Willie Desjardins had Etem in the WHL with Medicine Hat. So we’ll see.
