"The Ottawa Senators are apparently finished with Pascal Leclaire.
They put the 28-year-old, oft-injured goalie on waivers on Saturday afternoon. If he clears at noon on Monday, as it is expected he will, he could spend the rest of the season with the Binghamton Senators, with whom he is presently on a conditioning assignment.
The initial plan was that Leclaire would return to Ottawa once his conditioning assignment was finished to serve as Craig Anderson's backup for the rest of the season. That would give Robin Lehner a chance to play some meaningful games in Binghamton as the team fights for a playoff berth.
But after being in Binghamton a week, Leclaire had yet to play a game, so the team was uncertain when or if he would ever be ready to return to the NHL. He was scheduled to play Saturday night at home against Rochester."
