Mammoth Recall Zac Jones

After returning Gregor Biber to AHL Tucson before he had a chance to play a game, it seemed likely that the Mammoth would be bringing someone else up to serve as a reserve option. They’ve now done just that, announcing (Twitter link) that they’ve recalled blueliner Zac Jones from Tucson.

The 26-year-old is in his first season with Utah after inking a two-year, two-way contract following a non-tender by Buffalo back in June. Jones cleared waivers in training camp and has been with the Roadrunners since then. He’s off to a hot start as well, notching 11 points in 13 games to start the year.

While Jones hasn’t seen any NHL action this season, he has a fair bit of experience at the top level.
