As NHL teams trim their rosters ahead of the regular season, The athlete's Corey Pronman and Harman Dayal will provide analysis of the top players granted waivers each day. Once a player is released, the rest of the league has 24 hours to file a claim on his behalf. If a player goes unclaimed, he may be assigned to the minor leagues by his team.

Ronnie Attard, RHD, Philadelphia Flyers

Attard has played in games in each of the last three NHL seasons, but has not yet established himself as a full-time player. He is a tall right-back with good attacking ability and his physique allows him to play and compete in both directions. However, he is not a great skater and his decision-making has caused him problems over the years. –Pronman
