Question about waivers

There are restrictions on sending them up and down, based on a reserve list of players. You cannot just move anyone up or down.

In addition, you cannot get a player off waivers after today. The team you have now is the team you will finish with.

Article 13.2 of the CBA

The "Playing Season Waiver Period" shall begin on the twelfth (12th) day prior to the start of the Regular Season and end on the day following the last day of a Club's Playing Season. Subject to the right and provisions of this Article, the rights to the services of a Player may be Loaned to a club of another league, upon fulfullment of the following conditions, except when elsewhere prohibited:

(a) Regular Waivers were requested and cleared during the Playing Season Waiver Period; and

(B) the Player has not played in ten (10) or more NHL Games cumulative since Regular wiavers on him were last cleared, and more than thirty (30) dyas cumulative on an NHL roster have not passed since Regular Waivers on him were last cleared.

Article 13.12 Transfers To/From Minors.

(j) A Player may be Loaned to a club of any league affiliated with the League at any time up to 3:00 p.m. New York time of the fortieth (40th) day immediately preceding the final day of the Regular Season (the "Trade Deadline"). Following this period, only the Player or Players who have been recalled during such restricted period under Article 13.12(l) or 13.12(m) may be Loaned back to the member club of the affiliated league from which they were Recalled.

(l) During the period following 3:00 p.m. New York time of the fortieth (40th) day immediately preceding the final day of the Regular Season no PLayer may be Recalled from Loan to a club of any league affiliated with the NHL, except that:

(i) A Club may exercise four Recalls from a club or clubs of any league affiliated with the NHL, of PLayer(s) listed on its own Reserve List.

(ii) Players may be recalled under Article 13.12(m)

(iii) PLayers may be Recalled upon completion of the regular season and playoff schedule of the club to which they were Loaned.

m) Emergency Recall

(i) A Player on Loan to a club of any league affiliated with the League may be Recalled from such Loan under emergency conditions at any time for the duration of the emergency only following which he must be returned properly to the club from which he was Recalled.

(ii) Emergency conditions shall be established when the playing strength of the Loaning Club, by reason of incapacitating injury or illness or by League suspension to its PLayers is reduced below the level of two (2) goalkeepers, six (6) defensemen and twelve (12) forwards. Proof of the existence of the emergency conditions including the incapacity shal be furnished to the Commissioner of the League upon request made by him.

(iii) For the purpose of establishing the existence of emergency conditions at any time, to support the recall of a Player for participation in any Playoff Game, it shall be deemed that the Player(s) on Loan following 3:00 p.m. New York time of the fortieth (40th) day immediately preceding the last day of the Regular Season are continuing on Loan for the remainder of the season notwithstanding that the Loaned club(s) may have been eliminated from further play for the season.

So basically, players can be waived up to the day following the last regular season game.

After today, the only players who can be demoted to the minors are those that have been recalled after today. Anyone who is on the active roster as of today can't be sent down until they have played their final game. And clubs can only make 4 recalls and demotions.
