Schroeder was placed on waivers, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Analysis:

If Schroeder isn't claimed off waivers, he'll likely spend much of the season at AHL Iowa barring injuries in Minnesota. Still, he showed a spark at times last year and almost made the final NHL roster, so he could work his way back into the NHL mix.
