Surprised he was claimed.
Could turn out to be a good PK/depth forward. His puck skills and offensive instincts seemed to be lacking at the NHL level though.

For those interested, this cost Dallas $56,250, paid to New Jersey and not counted against the cap.

Good pickup by Dallas, imo.
Studenic will most likely never be anything more than a 4th liner, but on the other hand he's pretty much what you want in a modern checker. He's got speed and an active stick which makes him good on the forecheck and penalty kill. So far he's not been very productive at the NHL level, but he's got better hands than the typical 4th line grinder back in the day.

even the worst teams have injuries. they call up players, which are waiver eligible and send them down again.

We are pretty bad team though and in Fitz era have been giving roster spots for free, Studenic received one of them and didn't really make a strong case that he's regular NHLer.

Aw. I hope when Dallas waives him we get him back so he can be in Utica for the playoff run.

Tanner Kero got placed on waivers by Dallas, just moving insignificant pieces around.
Studenic is 6 years younger then Kero.

Just tell your GM to claim Tanner Kero, and then in a few weeks on deadline day they can swap 'em.
Win-win.

Yeah, caught that in the waiver thread. Makes a little more sense now, kind of a bummer to lose Kero though.
Good bottom sixer/13th forward. Maybe he'll clear.

Will be interesting to see how he fits with the Stars. Seems like with several entitled forwards in the Devils lineup his opportunity wasn't going to come in New Jersey.
Much like Maltsev with the Avs, he is likely good insurance for the Stars should they reach the post-season.

The Devils are pretty good at producing bottom 6 guys, unfortunately there are only so many spots to go around. He is worth the risk.

He sounds like an italian curse word from an episode of the Sopranos. "That f'ing studeneech is all done. Send someone to go talk to him and take him for a ride..."

The problem with the Devils isn't their forwards.

Wait, Dallas assigned him to the AHL? How did that happen, does that mean that the Devils passed on getting him back?
Conditioning loan, so he still counts against Dallas' NHL roster limit. Hopefully Marian can get some good BBQ while he's near Austin.
