The Vancouver Canucks have returned home after a three-game road trip, and GM Patrik Allvin has made a roster move by placing Jack Studnicka on waivers, looking to assign him to the AHL's Abbotsford Canucks.
As reported by TSN's Chris Johnston>/b>, Studnicka, the former second-round pick, is subject to NHL waivers. Johnston shared the news on X, stating,
"Placed on NHL waivers today: Jack Studnicka (VAN)."
Since his trade from the Boston Bruins to Vancouver in October 2022, the 24-year-old has played in five games this season, contributing with one goal, no penalties, and maintaining a plus-two rating.
The move signals the team's strategic decision to potentially fine-tune its roster dynamics and player development.
