I was just thinking the same thing after looking at the stats from last night

Considering how desperate so many teams are for defensive help that speaks volumes that they couldn't trade him. I wonder if he gets claimed just because some teams are desperate.
The only HW the Canucks need

He's a warm body on defense, I wouldn't be surprised to see him (along with another warm body at another position where numerous teams have problems, netminder Josh Harding, who is on waivers today) being claimed.

That said the Stars didn't see fit to give him any kind of role on their awful blueline and have started auditioning AHLers so anyone claiming KC is sure to have limited expectations at best.

Well we have room for one more warm body on defence. Naw, jk
