Flyers' Mike McKenna: Hits waiver wire
Mike McKenna was waived by the Philadelphia Flyers on Wednesday.McKenna will likely receive a one-way ticket out of Philadelphia since Cam Talbot has finally joined the team following his trade from the Oilers last Friday. It's entirely possible that McKenna will pass through waivers unclaimed, and in that case, he'd almost assuredly end up with the Flyers' top developmental affiliate, AHL Lehigh Valley.

Flyers' Mike McKenna: Returns from conditioning stint
Mike McKenna was recalled from his conditioning assignment with AHL Lehigh Valley on Tuesday.McKenna switches spots with Brian Elliott (lower body), who was sent down on a conditioning assignment of his own. McKenna figures to serve as the third option between the pipes for the Philadelphia Flyers behind Carter Hart and Anthony Stolarz. If Philadelphia can't find a trade partner for McKenna soon, the club will likely be forced to place the Ontario native on waivers.

Flyers' Mike McKenna: Embarks on conditioning stint
Mike McKenna was loaned to AHL Lehigh Valley on Wednesday for conditioning purposes.McKenna looked out of sorts in his Philadelphia Flyers debut versus the Capitals on Jan. 8 -- he permitted four goals on 24 shots in a home loss -- and the team opted to keep him out of the seven games that followed. With further consideration to Anthony Stolarz pitching a 38-save shutout to the detriment of the Rangers on Tuesday, the Flyers seized an opportunity to send McKenna to the top developmental affiliate to work on his conditioning. McKenna simply doesn't play enough to warrant fantasy consideration.

Flyers' Mike McKenna: Shelled in Flyers debut
Mike McKenna turned aside 20 of 24 shots during Tuesday's 5-3 road loss to the Capitals.McKenna is on his third NHL time in 2019, but his first start for the Philadelphia Flyers will likely do little to help his cause with his new team. Dropping to a 1-5-1 record behind a 3.52 GAA and .897 save percentage. The Flyers crease remains Carter Hart's to lose and it likely won't be long before McKenna is returned to the minors so his fantasy value is virtually non-existent at the moment.

Flyers' Mike McKenna: Blue-paint bound Tuesday
Mike McKenna will start in the road goal Tuesday versus the Capitals, Sam Carchidi of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.The Philadelphia Flyers will tie an NHL record by starting their seventh goalie of the season when McKenna enters the blue paint. McKenna started the season with Ottawa and recorded an .897 save percentage, 3.96 GAA and 1-4-1 record in 10 appearances. That stat line isn't appealing for a meeting with the Caps, who rank sixth in the league with 3.44 goals per game.

Flyers' Mike McKenna: Claimed off waivers
Mike McKenna was snatched off the waiver wire by the Philadelphia Flyers from the Canucks on Friday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.McKenna will join his third organization in 2019, having been traded from Ottawa to Vancouver on Wednesday. If the netminder gets in a game for Philadelphia, it would set an NHL record for most goaltenders used in a season at seven. Don't be surprised to see McKenna back on waivers down the road, as the team is waiting, perhaps anxiously, for Brian Elliott (lower body) to return.

Canucks' Mike McKenna: Waived by Vancouer
Mike McKenna was waived by the Vancouver Canucks on Thursday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.The Canucks acquired McKenna from the Senators via a trade Wednesday. He's posted a weak 1-4-1 record to go along with a 3.96 GAA and .897 save percentage over 10 games this season, and him being waived suggests that he may have been a simple throw-in asset in order for the Senators to be able to acquire fellow goalie Anders Nilsson and skater Darren Archibald. Thatcher Demko, a highly touted goalie prospect, could be on his way up to Vancouver in the near future.

Canucks' Mike McKenna: Dealt to Vancouver
The Senators traded Mike McKenna, Tom Pyatt and a 2019 sixth-round pick to the Vancouver Canucks in exchange for Anders Nilsson and Darren Archibald on Wednesday.With Craig Anderson (concussion) out indefinitely, the Senators are in desperate need of goaltending help, and McKenna simply isn't cutting it, having compiled a 1-4-1 record while posting a 3.96 GAA and .897 save percentage in 10 appearances, a sub-par performance which likely prompted Ottawa to make this trade to bring in Anders Nilsson. For the time being, McKenna will serve as Jacob Markstrom's backup, but that may change if the Canucks decide to promote Thatcher Demko.

Senators' Mike McKenna: Swamped by Isles
Mike McKenna stopped 33 of 38 shots in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Islanders.The final Islanders goal was scored into an empty net. Ottawa actually held a 3-1 lead early in the second period, but McKenna couldn't make it hold up as he lost his third straight start in regulation. The veteran backup now has a 1-4-1 record, 3.96 GAA and .897 save percentage through 10 appearances this season, and Ottawa may have to look elsewhere for consistent netminding while Craig Anderson (concussion) is on the shelf.
