Jones was a healthy scratch in Vancouver on Sunday but will replace Riley Stillman, who was placed on IR, in the lineup in Calgary. Jones has no points while averaging 13:14 TOI in two games this season.
After Wyatt Kalynuk went down with an injury, Jones seemed like a lock for the Blackhawks' third pair and second power-play unit. However, a left wrist strain will keep him out towards the end of November.
Jones is entering the final year of a two-year deal that carries an $850K cap-hit. After showing flashes of a potential top-4 defenseman in 2020, Jones was in and out of the Oilers lineup in 2021, finishing the season with just four assists in 33 games. This deal sheds nearly $4.7M in cap-space for the Blackhawks and could be something that helps them pursue Caleb's brother, Seth, in the offseason.
Jones has been a healthy scratch for the last five games but will replace Kris Russell in the lineup on Friday. Jones has contributed very little offensively this season, picking up no goals with just one assist in 17 games.
Jones was a healthy scratch on Wednesday but will replace Kris Russell in the lineup on Friday. Jones has just one assist in 14 games so far this season.
Jones has been a healthy scratch for the last four games but will replace Slater Koekkoek Tuesday in Winnipeg. Jones had one assist and a minus-4 rating while playing 15:50 ATOI in the first three games of the season.
Jones has spent time between the AHL and NHL this season, scoring three goals with 11 points in 14 games in Bakersfield and three assists in 23 games with the Oilers. Jones projects to be a third-pairing defenseman heading into 2020-21, so this is a great cap-hit for the Oilers.
Jones was sent down last Tuesday but quickly swaps spots with Joel Persson again. Jones has been spectacular in the AHL, posting 11 points (3G / 8A) in 14 games but has not registered a point in nine games with the Oilers.
Jones played well during his time with the Oilers, scoring one goal and picking up five assists across 17 games. The Oilers are in need of blueline help and Oscar Klefbom isn’t ready to return yet, so the move doesn’t make a lot of sense at this time.
