Call up / Send down
Edmonton Oilers winger Ryan Jones is rejoining the struggling club, meeting them in Pittsburgh and he’ll be playing Tuesday night against the Penguins.
He has two goals in four games for the AHL Barons including a highlight reel goal this past weekend as the Barons beat the Iowa Stars. He went down with a good attitude, didn’t sulk, played lots of minutes, and now he’s back.
Waiver Move
The Edmonton Oilers have waived Ryan Jones.
Jones missed 21 games with an eye injury last year and then signed a $1.5 million US contract this offseason. He could be claimed by someone looking for a gritty forward, but he is not fantasy relevant.
Jones out after being hit hard by an illness the last few days, Hartikainen is in.
Jones is not fantasy relevant.
Ten days ago, and less than a week before the NHL and NHLPA agreed to end their bitter, 113-day-long work stoppage, Jones was struck in the eye by an errant puck during a conditioning skate in Minnesota.
A scary injury for Jones who will be out indefinitely.
