The Buffalo Sabres have placed three players on waivers: James Reimer, Kale Clague, and Lukas Rousek. Reimer, a seasoned goaltender, had signed a one-year contract with hopes of securing the backup position but now faces uncertainty.

Last season, Reimer played 25 games for the Detroit Red Wings, achieving an 11-8-2 record. Clague and Rousek had limited roles with the Sabres, with Clague registering one assist in three games and Rousek contributing two assists in 15 games.
