He hasn't had a whole lot of experience, but I think Stempniak's game might be more suited for the playoffs than Hudler. Overall, I think they are equal value wise based on their season this year.
Other thing is, I think Treliving moved Hudler earlier so he could focus on the Russell deal. There were only two defensemen available but lots of forwards. It looks like it all worked out.
