Recalled/Assigned: Lucas Condotta called up by the Canadiens (Called Up 11-6)

Don’t we have a 23 man roster?

Yes and they can send him back down. They don't know if they are successful on a claim yet (if they put one in).

Call back clearly goes on merit with this organisation

Why not just claim Jones instead?

He's terrible and isn't a center.

Look at the comments from Bruins fans on Jones, not really interesting

Player Discussion - Max Jones

I haven't seen anything in Jones that makes me think he should be on the roster at all. He isn't even a physical force. He just takes dumb penalties. I guess they are stubborn and don't want to admit they made a mistake signing him but right now we'd be better off with him waived and Johnson...

Sounds like he would fit right in on the Habs!!

No one claimed him, contract likely the issue with the length

Condotta can do exactly what Jones can do

In the same way Pezzetta can do what Wilson can do, I guess. Max Jones is a much more imposing and damaging player than Condotta.

I remember him in Anaheim and he didn't stick out to where I would want to take him while we have guys like Condotta and Tuch who can do a similar job.

We're at 22 (13F, 7D, 2G) with Kapanen loaned and Condotta recalled.

RHP might be returning soon, which would bring them to 23.

We're not asking him to be the next Claude Lemieux, but he'd be an upgrade over guys like RHP/Pezz/Condotta.

He wasn’t this year though, he wasn’t physical at all

Yeah bruins fans weren't much impressed with. Think they mentioned he got injured in preseason or something.
