Stauber was put on waivers Wednesday with the intention of reassigning him to AHL Tucson.

Stauber had a 3.07 GAA and an .889 save percentage in 36 regular-season appearances with AHL Tucson in 2025-26. The 27-year-old was never expected to make Utah's Opening Night roster. Karel Vejmelka is set to enter the campaign as Utah's No. 1 option, while Sebastian Cossa is likely to get the backup role.
