24-Year-Old DefensemanD
New York Rangers
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Jones spent the entirety of last season in the NHL, serving as the Rangers' seventh defenseman. As a result, his playing time was extremely limited. He appeared in just 31 regular-season games (two goals, nine points) and none after April 7. The good news is that Jones showed extremely well when in the lineup to the point that New York neglected to sign a replacement for Erik Gustafsson in free agency, all but opening up a full-time roster spot for Jones. There could be some sneaky fantasy value here if Jones is able to secure a role on the club's second power-play unit, but that's far from a given. Read Past Outlooks
$Signed a two-year, $1.625 million contract with the Rangers in June of 2023.
Provides assist in win

November 3, 2024
Jones logged an assist and four blocked shots in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Islanders.
ANALYSIS
Jones started the year as a consistent part of the lineup, but with the Rangers fully healthy on the blue line, he's in competition with Victor Mancini for playing time. The 24-year-old Jones is up to two assists, a plus-5 rating, four shots on net, three hits and five blocked shots over six appearances this season. If the Rangers prioritize having an even righty-lefty split on their blue line, Jones may find himself out of the lineup frequently moving forward as the team's fourth left-handed defenseman.

Jon Litterine breaks down his top 50 NHL prospects heading into the 2021-22 NHL campaign.
2022 Fantasy Outlook
Jones should have spent most of his first full professional season in New York, but he ultimately played just 12 games with the Rangers and 52 games with their AHL affiliate in Hartford in 2021-22. He was brilliant (9 goals, 35 points) as a 21-year-old for the Wolf Pack. Jones is a legitimate power-play quarterback with terrific offensive ability. He struggles in his own zone at times and will never be the type to log significant defensive minutes, but he's clearly ready for a full-time gig at the NHL level, likely starting this coming campaign alongside Braden Schneider on the team's third defensive pair.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Still with New York
DNew York Rangers
October 24, 2024
Jones could remain on the Rangers roster as the team placed Chad Ruhwedel on waivers Thursday, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones has been a healthy scratch the last two games and could be scratched again Thursday versus the Panthers if they decide to go with Victor Mancini as their sixth defenseman. Jones has yet to become a regular on the blueline as he has played only 73 games over the last five seasons, seeing a career-high 31 games in 2023-24.
