Michael Leighton has successfully cleared waivers. Leighton will begin the season in the minors. He is in the last season of his two-year/$3.1 million contract, but he's behind goaltenders Ilya Bryzgalov and Sergei Bobrovsky in the depth charts. We don't expect him to have any fantasy value this season.
