He will definitely have to waive some guys

I'm not a fan of the deal, but

I have options.

I have options.

Since this trade will be invalid, Detroit will have to make roster moves in order to make this move valid.

Not to nit pick but it was the FA acquisitions a day after the trade, that put me over the roster limit. Trade is good, moves will be posted shortly.

Ok well move has to be done either for this move or for free agent acquisitions.

Any idea when this will be processed?  Just curious on if I need to make more waiver moves or not.  Thanks!
