Jones was 11-17-9 with a .905 SV% and 3.07 GAA through 38 games with the Iowa Heartlanders (ECHL) in 2022-23 and has signed a one-year, two-way contract ($787,500/$70,000) through 2023-24. The 22-year-old netminder was drafted in the second round of the 2019 draft (59th overall) and has yet to make his NHL debut having only played in 29 AHL games with Iowa since 2020-21.

Jones finished his 2022-23 regular season with an 11-17-9 record, 3.07 GAA and .905 SV% with the Iowa Heatlanders (ECHL) before seeing one game of action with the Iowa Wild (AHL) and has now been called up to Minnesota for the first time this season. The 22-year-old has likely been brought up as a third emergency option as there is no news of goaltender injuries at the moment in Minnesota's camp.

Minnesota selected Jones with the No.59 overall pick (second round) in 2019 and the 19-year-old netminder went 31-14-3 with a 2.75 GAA and .913 SV% in 49 games with the Peterborough Petes (OHL). He was fourth in wins and GAA and fifth in SV% in 2019-20.
