Lucas Condotta News: On waivers for AHL assignment

Condotta has been placed on waivers by the Canadiens for the purpose of assignment to AHL Laval, the team announced Sunday.

Condotta was one of many cuts that Montreal made to the training camp roster Sunday. The 27-year-old played seven regular-season games last season with the big club, scoring once, but he spent the rest of the campaign with Laval, recording five goals and 31 points across 63 regular-season outings. Although he's slated to start the season in the AHL, Condotta should be one of Montreal's top call-up options this year.
