In the following season he first played again for the Iowa Stars in the AHL, but made it into the NHL during the season. There he completed eight regular season games, in which he prepared two goals, and five playoff games for the Dallas Stars. In the early course of the 2008-09 season he was signed on the waiver list by the St. Louis Blues .

After the Tampa Bay Lightning signed him in 2012, they gave him and Sam Gagner to the Arizona Coyotes in 2014 and received a six- round vote in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft .
