<p>Hunt&#8217;s waiver placement is an administrative hurdle to clear before he, too, can be returned to the Wranglers. Hunt was on the NHL roster for more than 30 days since last clearing waivers, so he has to go through the process. The 29-year-old winger has split this season between the Flames and the Wranglers. In the NHL, he had three points over five games and served as their 13th forward for a good chunk of the season. In the AHL, he had 48 points over 48 games. He had two assists in the finale against Los Angeles.</p>
