NHL waivers are in effect. St. Louis has made the announcement that they have claimed Goaltender Pekka Rinne from waivers off of Nashville.
"Pekka is a competitor. We noticed that earlier on when scouting him and have a feeling about him. When we saw the list of players that were made available from the roster waivers, we knew we had to jump at the opportunity. We're building for the future and acquiring a guy like him gives us a lot of options now."
Rinne is expected to backup newly signed Goalkeeper Vasili Kosheckin
