Kings' Michael Mersch: Designated for waivers

Mersch was waived by Los Angeles on Wednesday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

Mersch appeared in 17 outings for the Kings back in 2015-16, but he was stuck in the minors for all of last season. A four-year player at the University of Wisconsin, the 24-year-old has shown flashes of scoring ability and could be in line for some call-ups during the upcoming campaign.
