The Montreal Canadiens have loaned forward Joshua Roy to the Laval Rocket of the AHL, the NHL team announced Wednesday.
In the evening, the Canadiens recalled forward Lucas Condotta from Laval.
Roy was called up earlier this month and made his NHL debut on Jan. 13. He has one goal and one assist in six games with the Canadiens.
The 20-year-old Roy has 12 goals and 18 assists for 30 points in 34 games for Laval this season, his first as a pro.
The undrafted Condotta, 26, has five goals and eight assists in 37 games for Laval this season. He made his NHL debut last season, playing one game for the Canadiens.
The Canadiens picked Roy in the fifth round (150th overall) of the 2021 NHL Draft.
Roy led the QMJHL in scoring in 2021-22 with the Sherbrooke Phoenix and was a member of gold medal-winning Canadian teams at the 2022 and '23 world junior championship.
