But after Alzner cleared NHL waivers at noon, his equipment would have been packed up and shipped to Laval, where he will report to the AHL’s Rocket. The 30-year-old is earning $6 million this season and will continue to earn that salary with the Rocket. Because Alzner is older than 26, the buyout amount would be two-thirds of the remaining contract value, according to CapFriendly.com. In the eight games Alzner played, he had one assist and a plus-2 rating. “His future’s not gone with us,” Canadiens head coach Claude Julien said about Alzner after the defenceman was placed on waivers Monday.
