I'm sorry but WHY Jones and not Comeau, it makes NO god **** sense to me..

There is something up with Comeau and management that we don't know. 100%

Of the 4th liners he has looked the BEST.
Yet he is on waivers?

This team has so few natural centres or players with size, so one guy who fits both of those criteria is placed on waivers...

Headscratcher

Clearing roster space. Doesn't make sense at all really, unless someone is coming in.

I also think there is a real good chance someone puts a claim in on him. He has been solid this year. Not one sportscaster had a bad thing to say about him.

I sure hope they aren't clearing a spot on the 4th line for Baertschi instead of finding a trade for a top 9 guy and putting him there.

Bizarre move. What does the brass see in Comeau that everyone here is missing? He is just simply not an NHL player. Blair Jones on the other hand has been OK.

Because Comeau wouldn't get claimed and they need the roster space is my guess.
