Flames Place Struggling Forward On Waivers

On Tuesday afternoon, the Calgary Flames announced they had placed 27-year-old Walker Duehr on waivers. In 16 games this season, he's collected one assist and is minus-six, averaging 8:48 in ice time.

Duehr started the year with the Calgary Wranglers, earning a call-up to the Flames for his season debut on Dec. 3. He remained in the lineup for the rest of the month, becoming a healthy scratch at the beginning of January.

On the recent Flames' four-game road trip, Duehr played the first three games and was minus-3.

If Duehr goes unclaimed by Wednesday afternoon, he'll be eligible to return to the Wranglers, who play at home for a weekend series with the San Diego Gulls.
