What this will do is

1. Turco, loses because even if another team claims him from the waiver wire
he can't play in the NHL. Some rules about Waivers and signings after the trade deadline.
2. The Bruins, lose because they don't have a serviceable back up

Here is a link to the interview with Chiarelli

I saw yesterday that the Bruins thought it would be 50-50 that Turco would be claimed in waivers, but I did not realize that would prohibit him from playing this year. That stinks, I hope he goes unclaimed so he can get a shot to get back in the Bigs.
