| HOW HE GOT AWAY |
| WAIVERS: Tebbutt never signed with
Minnesota, instead jumping to the WHA. He did not enter the NHL until the
1979 NHL-WHA merger. Quebec claimed him off the Birmingham roster in the 1979
WHA Dispersal Draft, but Minnesota regained his rights in the NHL Reclaim Draft on
June 9, 1979. Minnesota placed Tebbutt on waivers two months later, and he was
claimed by Quebec on August 13, 1979. |
