Curtis Sanford On Waivers

*-The Vancouver Canucks have placed Curtis Sanford on waivers this morning. After acquiring Jason Labarbera from the Kings it appears he is the chosen back-up for Roberto Luongo and Curtis Sanford will be heading to the AHL Manitoba Moose if he is not claimed. He is expected to clear but a few teams are showing interest including the New York Islanders, and L.A. The Ilses are still missing a reliable back-up for DiPietro and it appears he'll be out a lot longer than expected. Sanford could take some weight off McDonald's shoulders till DiPietro is ready to return. L.A really doesn't have a back-up at the moment and to say Jonathan Quick is the answer is not saying much about their organization. By adding Sanford it would give young Ersberg some much need support.
