THE TELETYPE:
TSN is reporting that the Edmonton Oilers have placed Sheldon Souray on waivers. The Ducks were rumored to be one of many teams showing interest in a trade for the 33 year old defenseman, who missed much of 2009-10 with a concussion before being sidelined with a broken hand. Souray has two years remaining on his contract at a 5.4M cap hit, but only 4.5M in salary each year. The blueliner also named Anaheim as one of six teams to which he would accept a trade and waive his no movement clause last season. California, in particular, was a target for Souray, as it would allow him to be closer to his family.
