The Dallas Stars have claimed defenseman Vladislav Kolyachonok off waivers from the Boston Bruins and reassigned him to AHL Texas. This move addresses the Stars’ need for veteran presence on their AHL roster due to injuries affecting their NHL defensive core. Kolyachonok, who has struggled offensively in recent seasons, will aim to improve on his current season’s stats of three assists in 10 games. If recalled to the NHL, he will have a 10-game window or 30 days before becoming waiver-eligible again.
