Joel Armia to LA?

Perry’s signing, I understand, but this extra add is a bit perplexing. Are Andre Lee and Sammy Helenius still waiver exempt? I know Turcotte and Mallott are not. I guess Holland bought what Hiller was selling
 
Neither one can fill Moore or Turcotte's shoes. These are 4th liners and I doubt Perry will be able to play all 82 games and still be effective for the playoffs.
Both Armia and Perry are most effective on the right side. Same as Moore. Both Perry and Armia will get time on the 3rd line at times. They wouldn’t sign here to play exclusively on the 4th line/special teams.

Current RWs on the roster:
Kempe
Moore
Perry
Armia

Yet to be signed:
Laferriere

There simply aren’t enough minutes for all 5. Can some of them play on the left side? Yes and that’s why I say Turcotte will possibly be moved.

Looking at that list and Moore’s name sticks out as the odd man out due to size and play style.

The difference between Trevor Moore and Alex Turcotte is that, one of them has figured out how to play a high energy game despite his size, and the other guy hasn’t.
