Just one player was placed onto the NHL waiver wire on Saturday, and it was defenseman Jacob Bernard-Docker, waived by the Detroit Red Wings .

Bernard-Docker, who has missed the entirety of the new season to this point as he deals with an upper-body injury, was activated from injured reserve. With the Red Wings having seven defensemen on their active roster already, they’ll look to get Bernard-Docker through waivers so that he can ramp up while playing with their AHL affiliate Grand Rapids Griffins.
