Griffith was waived Tuesday for the purpose of sending him to AHL Bakersfield.

EDGE Analysis

Griffith generated 17 goals and 60 points in 72 minor-league games for the Condors last season. He will probably spend most, if not all, of the 2023-24 campaign in the AHL. The 30-year-old forward has eight goals and 11 assists in 80 career NHL contests.

Griffith was waived by Edmonton on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Edmonton intends to assign Griffith to Bakersfield of the AHL if he clears. He racked up 30 goals and 80 points in 64 games with the Condors last campaign. He also skated in one match for the Oilers during the 2021-22 season.

Griffith was among seven players recalled from AHL Bakersfield on Tuesday. In addition to the winger, Edmonton brought up Dylan Holloway, Philip Broberg, Markus Niemelainen, Brad Malone, Stuart Skinner and Dmitri Samorukov, Tom Gazzola of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Griffith saw action in just one NHL game this year but was fantastic with the Condors, racking up 80 points (fourth best in the AHL) in 64 games, including 30 goals. If that level of production wasn't enough to see the 29-year-old elevated to the NHL roster, fantasy players probably shouldn't be baking on him becoming a full-time NHL option any time soon.

Griffith finalized a two-year, two-way contract with Edmonton on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Griffith currently leads AHL Bakersfield and ranks fourth in the AHL with 52 points over 40 games this season. The 29-year-old has just one NHL appearance in 2021-22.

Griffith was demoted from the taxi squad to AHL Bakersfield on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Griffith has appeared in just one NHL game this season. He'll spend more time at the AHL level where he's racked up 33 points through 25 games.

Griffith was promoted to the taxi squad from AHL Bakersfield on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Griffith has racked up nine goals and 33 points through 25 AHL contests this season. He could see some time in Edmonton's bottom-six at some point in the near future.

Griffith was assigned to AHL Bakersfield on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Griffith recorded just over five minutes of ice time and a plus-1 rating in his lone NHL appearance. With the Condors this season, the right-winger has recorded 18 points through his 18 appearances. He will look to continue to earn a name for himself in the minors until another opportunity in the NHL presents itself.

Griffith was called up from AHL Bakersfield on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Griffith leads the Condors with 18 points in as many games this year. He could serve as a fill-in on the wing with Zach Hyman (shoulder) and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (COVID-19 protocols) potentially unavailable for Saturday's game versus the Kraken.

Griffith was waived by the Oilers on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Unsurprisingly, Griffith wasn't able to win a job out of training camp. The 28-year-old winger figures to spend most or all of the season with AHL Bakersfield if he clears waivers. He hasn't played in the NHL since he logged 21 games with the Sabres in 2017-18.

Griffith was placed on waivers for the purpose of assignment to AHL Bakersfield on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Griffith has been productive at the minor-league level with 139 points in 173 contests over the last three years. That hasn't translated to many looks in the NHL, as he's been out of hockey's top league since 2017-18. Should injuries arise, Griffith could find himself with the Oilers' taxi squad later in the year.
