I'm not sure, but it's probably in Utah.

I think the plan is to send Leighton to the same farm your parents sent your boyhood dog to after he "disappeared".

Yes, Vancouver probably thought that Volpatti would clear but then this opportunity came by with a similar guy.

Yup.
Basically a slightly bigger, slightly slower version of Volpatti.

Also, I really hope Butler hooks on somewhere. He's a friend of mines cousin. Seemed to be doing well once upon a time, but looks like he's been slipping. This is the 2nd time now he's been waived, yes?

Butler is crap, hope he clears so ALbany has some depth but won't care if someone claims him

His play against Buffalo really sealed his fate.

I remember when the Senators got Butler and he was a pretty good prospect. Doesn't seem like he'll ever be a regular NHL player. Not good enough for a top-six role and not suited for a bottom-six role. Extremely hard to figure out where to put a player like that.

In the AHL or Europe. That's where you put them.

I had a feeling Nashville was going to take him.
Basically every forward not named Colin Wilson or Craig Smith is underperforming at the moment, so it's a low-risk move to shake things up.

I think the Hurricanes can assign him directly to Charlotte though right?

I wouldn't be surprised to see Carolina grab him and put him in the AHL, but I'm not sure there will be a lot of outside interest. If he can't score with the Pens, he might just not be an NHL scorer.
