Cormier cleared waivers and was assigned to AHL St. John's on Wednesday.

Analysis:

Cormier missed the Jets' first three games after he was on the receiving end of a stick to the eye in training camp. The injury allowed the Jets to stash him on their non-roster injury list, but now that he's back to full health, he'll have to begin his season in the minors.
