The Calgary Flames placed veteran Mason Raymond and fellow forward Paul Byron on waivers Monday.
Signed to a three-year, $9.45 million contract in the summer of 2014, Raymond has two years remaining at a cap hit of $3.15 million. The 30-year-old Alberta native is expected to clear waivers and be sent to Stockton of the American Hockey League.
