The Buffalo Sabres announced on Wednesday forward Patrik Berglund has been placed on waivers.

The Sabres say they plan to terminate his contract with the club. 

He's missed the team's last five games after being suspended for failing to show up for a game.

His $3.85M cap hit for each of the next three seasons will come off the books.

Berglund will be free to sign with any team.
