Goaltender Ondrej Pavelec and forward Pierre-Alexandre Parenteau were put on waivers as NHL teams pare down to their opening night rosters. The Winnipeg Jets announced they put Pavelec on waivers at noon Monday with the intent of sending him to the American Hockey League. The New York Islanders announced Parenteau went on waivers, three months after signing him to a $1.25 million, one-year contract. The 29-year-old with 371 games of NHL experience was passed on Winnipeg's depth chart by younger goalies Connor Hellebuyck and Michael Hutchinson. The Islanders brought back Parenteau in the hopes he could rekindle some magic with John Tavares.
