Wild's Tyler Pitlick: Placed on waivers

Pitlick was placed on waivers by the Wild on Sunday.

Pitlick signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Wild during the offseason, but he was unable to earn a spot on the Opening Night roster during training camp. He recorded 21 goals, 25 assists and 34 PIM over 59 regular-season appearances with AHL Providence last year and will likely head to AHL Iowa if he clears waivers.
