Backup Anaheim Ducks goalie Ilya Backup Anaheim Ducks goalie Ilya Bryzgalov was placed on waivers Friday. An NHL source said the Coyotes are interested, but they’ll have to hope that the three teams with lower winning percentages – Edmonton, Washington and Buffalo – do not make a claim.Bryzgalov’s fate will be known at 1:00 p.m. today. There is also the possibility that teams allow Bryzgalov to clear waivers and call Burke’s buff to see if he tries to recall Bryzgalov in hopes of cutting his salary in half (Burke would be responsible for half of his salary +/- $450,000).
