The New Jersey Devils have placed forward Michael Cammalleri on waivers for the purposes of a buyout, the team announced Friday.

Cammalleri spent the last three seasons with the Devils, playing a total of 171 games, scoring 51 goals and totaling 111 points. He had completed the first two years of a five-year, $25-million contract signed prior to the 2014-15 NHL campaign.

The 35-year-old has suited up for four teams over his career, posting a total of 613 points in 840 regular season games. Cammalleri hasn't played in the postseason since 2010-11, when he was a member of the Montreal Canadiens. He has 32 points in 37 playoff contests.

The Devils also plan to buy out forward Devante Smith-Pelly. Smith-Pelly was going to be due $1.3 million for the 2017-18 campaign, the final year of a two-year, $2.6-million contract he signed prior to last season. He had scored a total of just 22 points in 71 games with the Devils.
