If he is all that, and I am just making stuff up again, then why didn't someone pick him up? They could have had him for FREE. He didn't even have a contract for next year so there is no concern he would be blocking anyone else or cap concerns. 31 other teams said no thanks.

I mean Nedeljkovic passed through waivers at the beginning of last season, and I sure wish he were on the Oilers now. Waivers definitely don't always seem to make a lot of sense, with who gets claimed and who doesn't.
I do wonder if contract limits play a role as well in waivers. A lot of teams run pretty close to that 50-contract limit, and so unless you are quite confident that it is a player you want to add, you probably want to leave some flexibility, and might be reluctant to take gambles on players without another contract going back the other way. I imagine this is especially true near the deadline where buyers and sellers both want to create the most opportunity and flexibility they can to get the deals done that they need to.
