Cayden Primeau - Page 2 - NHL News & Rumors

Gets starting nod Tuesday Primeau will be between the pipes at home versus the Predators on Tuesday, Luke Fox of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Primeau will be making his Maple Leafs debut after being claimed off waivers by Toronto on Oct. 6. For now, the 26-year-old Primeau figures to fill the No. 2 role for Toronto but could find himself back on waivers once Joseph Woll (personal) rejoins the team. Given the uncertainty around Primeau's long-term status with the Leafs, fantasy managers will probably want to consider alternative options in the crease.

Cayden Primeau Claimed Off Waivers By Toronto | Carolina Hurricanes Goaltender was acquired by Carolina on June 30

Claimed by Toronto Primeau was claimed off waivers by the Maple Leafs on Monday.

Impact Primeau was waived by the Hurricanes on Sunday, and he'll get an opportunity for a fresh start heading into the 2025-26 season. It seems likely that Primeau will begin the regular season in the minors since Anthony Stolarz is set to serve as Toronto's starting netminder, while Dennis Hildeby and James Reimer competed for backup duties during camp while Joseph Woll (personal) is on a leave of absence.

Hits waivers for AHL assignment Primeau was placed on waivers by the Hurricanes for the purpose of assignment to AHL Chicago, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports Sunday.

Impact Primeau, acquired by the Hurricanes in an offseason trade, will begin the season in the AHL, assuming he clears waivers. It's not too surprising considering the 26-year-old is looking up at established NHL goaltenders Frederik Andersen and Pyotr Kochetkov, and now the addition of Brandon Bussi off waivers further complicates his situation. Primeau was very impressive in his 26 starts last season with AHL Laval, registering a 1.96 GAA and .927 save percentage.

Starting against Nashville Primeau will start Sunday's preseason game at home against the Predators, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

Impact Primeau started the Hurricanes' preseason opener against the Lightning on Monday and turned aside 18 of 20 shots while playing the whole game. He'll have another chance to start Sunday, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him head to the minors ahead of the regular season.

Starting preseason clash Primeau will get the starting nod at home versus Tampa Bay on Monday and might play the whole game, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Impact Primeau will make his Hurricanes debut after coming over from Montreal, the club he spent the past six seasons with. As a depth option with Montreal last season, Primeau played in a mere 11 regular-season tilts, going 2-3-1 with a 4.69 GAA and .836 save percentage. The 26-year-old Primeau will need to really impress in camp if he is going to force his way onto the Opening Night roster.

Signs extension following trade Primeau has signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Hurricanes, the team announced Tuesday.

Impact Primeau was a restricted free agent when he was acquired by the Hurricanes, but they fixed that by signing him to a new contract. The 25-year-old dominated the AHL last season, holding 21-2-3 record, with a 1.92 GAA and a .927 save percentage, during his time with AHL Laval last year. He will hope to replicate those results with the Hurricanes this season. The NHL goalie room seems set, but Primeau stands to be the first goalie call-up option should one of them get injured.
