Andrew Bodnarchuk: Signs with German club
Bodnarchuk agreed to terms on a deal with DEL side Red Bull Munich on Monday, Mark Divver of The Providence Journal reports.
Selected by the Bruins in the fifth round of the 2006 NHL Draft, Bodnarchuk has played in 42 NHL contests split between Boston, Columbus and Colorado. Last season, the blueliner notched 21 points in 73 outings with AHL Texas. Without an NHL deal in hand, the 29-year-old will make his first foray into European hockey.

Stars' Andrew Bodnarchuk: Assigned to AHL
The Stars assigned Bodnarchuk to the AHL on Tuesday.
Bodnarchuk played a career-high 37 NHL games last season. He started the year with Columbus and was claimed off waivers by Colorado midseason. The blueliner may have value to the Stars, but even if he works his way back into the NHL, his assets don't translate to fantasy points. In those 37 games, he took just nine shots, so he's unlikely to be fantasy relevant this season.

Stars' Andrew Bodnarchuk: Waived by team
Bodnarchuk was one of two players placed on waivers by the Stars on Monday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Bodnarchuk and fellow defenseman Dustin Stevenson will be reassigned to AHL Texas if they go unclaimed off the waiver wire. Bodnarchuk signed with the Stars over the summer for the next two years after spending parts of the 2015-16 season with Colorado and Columbus. The 28-year-old is still looking for his first NHL goal, which will likely only happen if the injuries start piling up on the Dallas blue line.

Avalanche's Andrew Bodnarchuk: will play for Avs on Wednesday
Bodnarchuk will be suiting up for the Avs as they face off against the Blues on Wednesday and will be skating in the top defensive pairing with Francois Beauchemin, Terry Frei of The Denver Post reports.
It comes as somewhat of a surprise that Bodnarchuk was selected as Eric Johnson's(lower body) replacement to skate in the top defensive pairing for Wednesday's game. Bodnarchuk was just claimed off waivers from the Blue Jackets on Tuesday and has only 21 games under his belt at the NHL level. Johnson is expected to be out for about 12 days so Bodnarchuk will most likely skate for only a handful games.

Conversely, the Avalanche were looking to bolster their defense with injuries to Erik Johnson (lower body) and Brad Stuart (back). In 16 games this season, the 27-year-old notched only two assists and went minus-6.

Blue Jackets' Andrew Bodnarchuk: Recalled by Blue Jackets on Saturday
Bodnarchuk was recalled by the Blue Jackets on Saturday.
With Fedor Tyutin (upper body) and Cody Goloubef (jaw) both banged up, Columbus is in desperate need of additional depth at defense. The 27-year-old Bodnarchuk, who has tallied eight points (two goals, six assists) in 14 games with AHL Lake Erie this season, will likely draw into the Blue Jackets' lineup Sunday against the Sharks, as he is now one of just six healthy blueliners on the team's roster.
