Hurricanes Claim Troy Bodie Off Waivers from Ducks

The Carolina Hurricanes announced today that they have claimed right wing Troy Bodie off waivers from the Anaheim Ducks. In nine games so far this season, he has one assist and seven penalty minutes. He was a healthy scratch in Anaheim's last eight games. This is really just a depth move for the Hurricanes, although Bodie does play with a lot of toughness and has good size. However, it remains to be seen if he'll play a regular role with Carolina or end up in the minors.
