I think they need a waiver because a new club, by definition, could not meet PDR (unless there is a rule that covers this specific situation). Don't they need (and I assume got) SCAHA/CAHA to formally say that kids who played for Wave out of Ontario this season count towards the new club's PDR and that and that contact with Wave kids out of Ontario will not be treated as recruitment?
A/B playoffs have not even started but silly season just got off to a roaring start.
