Alexander Volkov: Placed on unconditional waivers
The Ducks waived Volkov unconditionally for purposes of contract termination Monday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Volkov scored eight points in 18 games with Anaheim last season but couldn't crack the NHL lineup this season and was waived in early October. Once he clears waivers he'll be free to sign anywhere in the league but it's possible he considers going back to his home country of Russia.

Ducks' Alexander Volkov: Lands on waivers
Volkov was waived by the Ducks on Wednesday, Sportsnet's Chris Johnston reports.
Volkov produced a solid eight points in 18 games after he was traded from the Lightning last year, but it appears he'll begin 2021-22 with AHL San Diego. The 24-year-old should be a top candidate for a call-up if injuries arise among the Ducks' forwards, assuming he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Ducks' Alexander Volkov: Activated from non-roster list
Volkov (COVID-19 protocol) was taken off the non-roster list and placed on the active roster Thursday, per CapFriendly.

Lightning's Alexander Volkov: Lights lamp twice in loss
Volkov scored two goals in Monday's 6-4 loss to the Panthers.
The 23-year-old winger did what he could to help the Lightning climb out of a deep hole in the second period, lighting the lamp twice in a little over four minutes to make the score 5-3, but Tampa couldn't finish the comeback. Volkov has three goals and four points in the last four games, but his spot on the fourth line makes him a risky fantasy option despite his recent production.

Lightning's Alexander Volkov: Secures one-year deal
Volkov agreed to terms on a one-year, $700,000 contract with Tampa Bay on Wednesday, per agent Dan Milstein.
The fact that Volkov's contract is one-way in nature is perhaps the most intriguing aspect considering the Lightning are already significantly over the cap and still need to lock up restricted free agent Anthony Cirelli before the start of training camp on Jan. 3. The Lightning's recent spending spree could be an indication Nikita Kucherov (hip) will start the season on long-term injured reserve which may open up a spot in the lineup for Volkov as a bottom-six option.
