"Well, unfortunately things might have gone better if Stolarz did do that. During the three appearances Primeau made for Toronto, he earned a .838 save percentage and a 4.30 goals against average -- eerily similar to his numbers last season of an .836 save percentage and a 4.70 goals against average in 11 games for the Montreal Canadiens. With Primeau back on waivers, it is unlikely that any team wanting him for their NHL team puts in a claim."
"But, considering the Leafs claimed him from the Canadiens originally, Montreal can put in a claim and if no one else does, they can send him right down to the AHL's Laval Rocket without needing to pass through waivers once again. But, with top goalie prospect Jacob Fowler and veteran netminder Kaapo Kahkonen as the tandem for Laval, Primeau might not even have a spot on that team either."
Cayden Primeau was placed on waivers by the Toronto Maple Leafs, with other NHL teams having until the next-day 2:00 p.m. deadline to submit a claim. The Maple Leafs acquired Primeau from waivers on October 7 to serve as a temporary replacement for Joseph Woll while Woll was on leave. Primeau appeared in three games for Toronto, posting a .838 save percentage and a 4.30 goals-against average, numbers similar to his .836/.4.70 line in 11 games with Montreal last season. If unclaimed, Montreal could reclaim and assign him to Laval, but Laval already has Jacob Fowler and Kaapo Kahkonen, and Toronto’s Marlies also have goaltending concerns. Primeau carries a 2-1-0 record.
