North Stars make more cuts
More cuts for the North Stars were made on Wednesday, meaning the 2016-17 roster is almost finalized.
A total of four players were released and one placed on waivers. Goaltender Dawson Rodin, defenceman Dawson Boehm, and forwards Blake Fennig and Zane Jaber were all released, and forward Tayden Woods was placed on waivers.
The only difference between being released and placed on waivers is that Woods was signed to a card by the team, meaning he is still their property until Friday. The others are free to try out or sign with another team immediately.
Rodin and Boehm were in tough from the get go, as there were already two returning goalies and six returning defencemen. Fennig and Jaber are younger guys who were just a step behind and Tayden Woods was expected to score a little bit more.
