EDM puts Mark Fayne on waivers. Alex Semin (MTL) is on unconditional waivers, likely for mutually agreed termination of contract. — Bob McKenzie (@TSNBobMcKenzie) December 9, 2015 Semin on unconditional waivers for purpose of his release. His agent Todd Diamond talking to teams overseas. Could be a deal by week's end — Pierre LeBrun (@Real_ESPNLeBrun) December 9, 2015 The events of this week represent a swift fall from grace for the Russian winger, who was a 40-point scorer for the Carolina Hurricanes just two seasons ago. He was a massive disappointment this season for the Canadiens, managing just four points (one goal, three assists) in 15 games after signing a one-year, $1.1 million contract this past summer. Semin's best years to date came with the Washington Capitals. The 31-year-old topped 50-point plateau five times in six seasons with the Capitals and scored a career 84 points in 2009-10.
