Studnicka signed a two-year contract with the Bruins on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The deal will carry an AAV of $762,500. Studnicka logged three assists in 15 NHL games last season while bouncing between the Bruins and AHL Providence. The 23-year-old center still possesses solid upside and will look to take a step forward in 2022-23. He'll likely be battling for a middle-six role with Boston in training camp.

EDGE Analysis
Studnicka filled in with the Bruins for the regular-season finale versus the Maple Leafs. The 23-year-old will likely remain in Providence during its AHL playoff run, though he could be among the Bruins' Black Aces if the NHL club makes a deep enough run.

Studnicka was reassigned to AHL Providence on Friday, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Studnicka's been a healthy scratch for seven straight games, so this move doesn't come as a surprise. The 23-year-old forward could be in for an extended stay in the minors.

Studnicka (undisclosed) will play Monday against Montreal, per the NHL's media site.
EDGE Analysis
Studnicka was considered a game-time call Monday but he'll avoid missing any time after blocking a shot Friday against the Jets. The 23-year-old has three assists in 11 NHL games this season.

Studnicka (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision Monday in Montreal, Scott McLaughlin of WEEI Boston reports.
EDGE Analysis
It sounds like Studnicka will take the ice for pregame warmups before deciding if he's able to play. With fellow center Patrice Bergeron (arm) out, the team could really use the 23-year-old Studnicka in this one from a depth perspective. If he's unable to play, look for the recently recalled Marc McLaughlin to make his NHL debut.

Studnicka skipped practice Sunday and is day-to-day with an undisclosed injury after blocking a shot Friday in Winnipeg, Conor Ryan of MassLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Studnicka's status for Monday's game in Montreal is still unclear, but with Patrice Bergeron (arm) unavailable, hopefully Studnicka isn't also forced to miss time.

Studnicka is projected to center the Bruins' first line Friday night against the Jets, Eric Russo of the team's official web site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Studnicka, who will playing in his 11th game with the Bruins this season and first since Feb. 21, is slated to fill in for top pivot Patrice Bergeron, who is in line to miss his second straight game with an arm issue. While it's a short-term opportunity for the 23-year-old forward, the prospect of skating on a line with Brad Marchand and Jake DeBrusk versus Winnipeg makes the skilled 2017 second-rounder worth considering in Friday fantasy lineups.

Studnicka was elevated from AHL Providence on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Studnicka has played in just 10 games at the NHL level this season, so fantasy players shouldn't be banking on him being a regular in the lineup moving forward. Even if he does play, the 23-year-old Ontario native is unlikely to see more than bottom-six minutes and won't offer much in the way of fantasy value.

Studnicka was reassigned to AHL Providence on Tuesday, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Studnicka has managed just two assists, 12 shots and 14 hits in his 10 appearances this season while averaging 12:37 of ice time. The 23-year-old center will switch places with Jesper Froden who was called up from Providence in a corresponding roster move. It's unlikely to be the last time Studnicka is flipped between levels in order to make sure he is still getting plenty of ice time.
