Jason Garrison: Waived unconditionally
The Blackhawks placed Jason Garrison on unconditional waivers Wednesday, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports.The Blackhawks have a logjam at defense, so there's no reason to keep Garrison around, as he'd only take ice time away from their youngsters in the AHL. Once his contract is terminated, Garrison will be free to sign with another NHL club, but it remains to be seen if any organization will express interest in bringing in the 34-year-old vet.

Blackhawks' Jason Garrison: Clears waivers, bound for AHL
Jason Garrison cleared waivers Tuesday, Charlie Roumeliotis of NBC Sports Chicago reports, relaying from Chicago Blackhawks GM Stan Bowman that the defenseman will head to AHL Rockford.Garrison could have served as the seventh defenseman for the Blackhawks following news that Brandon Davidson will miss 6-to-8 weeks following leg surgery, but evidently, that won't come to fruition. Once a valuable blueliner with 30-odd-point upside, Garrison has faded into obscurity in the fantasy realm.

Blackhawks' Jason Garrison: Waived by team
Jason Garrison was placed on waivers by the Chicago Blackhawks on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.Garrison -- who was just recently acquired via trade from Edmonton -- may not be headed down to the minors right away, as the club waits for Brandon Davidson (leg) to return. Whether the 33-year-old Garrison is shipped down as soon as he clears will go a long way toward determining when Davidson might be back.

Blackhawks' Jason Garrison: Packing bags for Chicago
Jason Garrison was traded to the Chicago Blackhawks along with Drake Caggiula in exchange for Brandon Manning and Robin Norell, Mark Spector of Sportsnet.ca reports.Chicago will be the fourth team that Garrison has suited up for in the last three seasons and sixth in his career.

Oilers' Jason Garrison: Given clean bill of health
Jason Garrison is expected to be a healthy scratch for Saturday's game against the Sharks, NHL.com's Derek Van Diest reports.Garrison was unavailable for Thursday's game against Vancouver due to an illness, but he was never expected to be on the shelf for long. Either way, the veteran blueliner has sat as a healthy scratch more often than not this campaign, so there's no reason for fantasy owners to keep tabs on his availability.

Oilers' Jason Garrison: Out with flu
Jason Garrison is under the weather and won't be available against the Canucks on Thursday, Jack Michaels of the Edmonton Oilers Radio Network reports.Considering how often Garrison has served as a healthy scratch this season, there was no guarantee he would have played even if he was healthy. The impending return of Kris Russell (undisclosed) will only serve to push Garrison further down the depth chart.

Oilers' Jason Garrison: Stuck in press box
Jason Garrison served as a healthy scratch in his sixth straight game against Calgary on Sunday.Garrison -- who signed a one-year deal with the Edmonton Oilers in October -- has played in just 12 games this season. With little playing time under his belt, the blueliner could be the odd man out whenever Andrej Sekera (Achilles) is cleared to return to action, especially considering the team made the move to acquire Chris Wideman via trade despite having Garrison waiting in the wings.

Oilers' Jason Garrison: Secures one-year deal
Jason Garrison agreed to terms on a one-year, $650,000 contract with the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday, Ryan S. Clark of The Athletic reports.The decision to sign Garrison was likely swayed by the injuries to Kris Russell (undisclosed) and Adam Larsson (back) -- both are questionable for Opening Night on Saturday against New Jersey. The veteran Garrison will likely take a spot on the 23-man roster over youngster Ethan Bear, but could see himself relegated to the press box down the road.

Oilers' Jason Garrison: Signs PTO with Oilers
Jason Garrison inked a deal for a professional tryout with the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday.Once upon a time Garrison scored 16 goals in a season, but those days are long behind him. Last year, the 33-year-old was a Golden Knight, but he only played eight games with the big club. Otherwise, the defenseman was down in the AHL plying his trade. It seems plausible that Garrison will grab a role with the Oilers, but even if he does there isn't much fantasy upside here. He's clearly on the downswing of his career.
