Sonny Milano, placed on waivers today by the Anaheim Ducks, is gathering the most attention. He is a former first round pick, selected 16th overall by the Columbus Blue Jackets back in 2014.

He could benefit from a second chance and a change of scenery as some teams out there are still looking at depth options up front for the 2021-22 season.

Let's keep an eye on the list until tomorrow's deadline.
