Blackhawks Place Brandon Davidson, Jason Garrison on Waivers
Davidson hasn't played since mid-November, and Garrison has not suited up for Chicago
By James Neveau ••
The Chicago Blackhawks made a pair of roster moves on Wednesday, placing two defensemen on waivers.
Jason Garrison, who was acquired from the Edmonton Oilers in a trade that sent Brandon Manning to the club, was placed on unconditional waivers by the team, paving the way for his release if he is not claimed.
Garrison is a free agent at season’s end, and is making $650,000 this season.
