The Buffalo Sabers announced that they have recalled defenseman Zac Jones from their American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Rochester Americans.
Jones was recalled to the Sabers roster just one day after being sent to the AHL. Now, after recording a goal and an assist in the Jan. 9 game against the Laval Rocket, Jones is back on the Sabers’ NHL roster with this latest roster move.

Although Jones has been called up to the Sabers squad several times this season, he has yet to make his debut for the club. The left-handed defenseman is hoping that changes after being recalled to the Buffalo team today.
In 28 games this season with the Amerks, Jones has three goals and 32 points. He also leads the entire AHL with 29 assists, so there’s no doubt he’s impressing hugely with Rochester.
Jones appeared in a career-high 46 games last season with the New York Rangers, where he recorded a goal, 10 assists, 11 points and an even plus/minus rating.
