Per Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman, both players on waivers Sunday were claimed. Austin Czarnik, who was placed on waivers by the Seattle Kraken, was claimed by the New York Islanders. After being placed on waivers by the Florida Panthers on Saturday, Olli Juolevi will be headed to the Detroit Red Wings, having been claimed as well.

For Czarnik, this will mark his second stint with the Islanders organization, having only departed after being claimed on waivers by the Kraken back on February 8. In his time with Seattle, Czarnik played in just six games, recording two assists. Prior to being placed on waivers by the Islanders, Czarnik had a fairly impressive two goals and three assists in 11 games for the Islanders, to go along with 15 points in 20 games with the AHL’s Bridgeport Islanders this season. Speaking of Bridgeport, the Islanders announced that Czarnik will be assigned to Bridgeport. The organization is able to assign Czarnik directly to the AHL without waivers, as they were the only team to put a claim in on the forward.

Juolevi will go to his third organization in two years after being traded by the Vancouver Canucks to Florida back in October. It has been a struggle for the once-top prospect, bouncing between injured reserve and the Panthers, playing in only 10 games, failing to record a point and averaging just 12:27 on the ice. Perhaps a fresh start with a new organization more suited to give him extra minutes could be what Juolevi needs.
