Kings add Scherbak off waivers from Canadiens
by Cory Wilkins from on (#4458P)
The Los Angeles Kings claimed forward Nikita Scherbak off waivers from the Canadiens, Montreal announced Sunday.
Scherbak, 22, made the Canadiens out of training camp but did not appear in a game this season. He put up one point in five games during a conditioning stint in the AHL before suffering a lower-body injury.
The Kings sit in last place with 19 points and had first priority when Scherbak was placed on waivers Saturday.
The Canadiens selected Scherbak with the 26th overall pick in 2014.
