I'm surprise there is no thread about him yet. Studnicka finished the season strong, leading his team in the playoff with 11-5-10-15.
I'm expecting him to be draft around the 3rd round.
He don't know why he is flying under the radar so much thus far, he seems to have a nice upside to his game?

"Known as an extremely coachable player, Studnicka plays a safe game with and without the puck and has developed into a reliable two-way forward who makes a good transition from the offensive zone to the defensive zone. Shows a good amount of speed and hustles back to break up odd-man rushes and uses long reach to intercept cross-ice passes. Never stops and has tremendous work ethic. Very effective in the face-off circle and given consistent power play time. His play five-on-five needs to be more consistent to make a difference at the next level. Bulked up over the summer and appears more confident on the ice from a year ago."

"In August, Studnicka represented Canada in the precursor to the season and the opening look at draft eligible players for the NHL Draft, the Ivan Hlinka Tournament. He appeared in 4 games for Canada but did not register a point. One season later, Studnicka sits third among Generals in points on 17 goals and 30 assists in 58 games. He’s registered 5 powerplay goals and 9 powerplay assists. But he has shown he can provide offense on the penalty kill as well with 2 goals and an assist while being down a man.
I don’t believe Studnicka is an offense first player, which I see tagged to him plenty. He puts as much attention to detail on the defensive side as he does on the offense. He plays in all situations and takes key faceoffs for the Generals. He’s quietly become the Generals’ top face off man at 53%. It’s his extremely high compete level that makes him pay attention at both ends. Studnicka has good size – although adding bulk will be key for him. He is an excellent skater who has an explosive first step and decent top end speed who can change direction with ease. He possesses very good vision with high quality playmaking skills with an ability to set up his teammates. His shot is underrated in my opinion. His release is deceptive and accurate and he puts every shot on goal with a purpose. Studnicka can be elusive in the offensive zone. He can break away from coverage almost undetected and put himself into scoring positions. He has very good puck skills and strong possession skills. Although he needs to add some muscle, he will not shy away from the hard areas. Once he gets stronger, it will become an area where he wins more often than he loses because of it – and his work ethic."
