|---|---|---|
| Feb. 4, 2025 | Jones was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Tuesday, according to Michael Russo of The Athletic. - Jones was sent down in order to make room for Marcus Johansson (concussion), who was activated off injured reserve in a corresponding move. Jones has not recorded a point over 26 appearances with Minnesota this season. | None |
| Jan. 29, 2025 | Jones was recalled from AHL Iowa on Wednesday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Jones was sent down by Minnesota in mid-January, but he'll join the Wild on their road trip that has four games remaining and runs through next Tuesday. The 25-year-old has made 26 appearances for the NHL club this year, and he's recorded no points, 51 hits, 11 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a minus-3 rating while averaging 8:23 of ice time. | None |
| Jan. 16, 2025 | Jones was sent to AHL Iowa on Thursday, per Michael Russo of The Athletic. - Jones went through waivers Tuesday, but he remained on the roster and saw action on the fourth line versus Edmonton on Wednesday. The center was unable to garner a point in 26 NHL games this season, but he did manage 51 hits while averaging 8:23 of ice time. He could return to Minnesota ahead of Saturday's tilt against the Predators, as the Wild have only nine healthy forwards heading into the matchup. | None |
| Jan. 15, 2025 | Jones is still on the Wild's NHL roster ahead of Wednesday's matchup with Edmonton, per the NHL media site. - Jones passed through waivers Tuesday but wasn't moved down as the team was still awaiting the status of Kirill Kaprizov (lower body) and Jakub Lauko (lower body). With neither player ready to suit up in Wednesday's tilt, Jones' potential demotion to the minors appears to be on hold. Look for him to suit up in a bottom-six role against the Oilers. | None |
| Jan. 13, 2025 | Jones was waived by the Wild on Monday. - Jones saw consistent playing time for Minnesota in recent months, as he appeared in 25 of the team's last 27 games. However, he didn't make much of an impact, as he was held without a point while recording 49 hits, 11 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a minus-3 rating while averaging 8:29 of ice time. He'll likely head to AHL Iowa if he passes through waivers. | None |
| Dec. 23, 2024 | Jones has suited up for 16 of 19 games since he was recalled from AHL Iowa on Nov. 17. - Jones has settled into a fourth-line role, primarily as a winger, though he played center between Devin Shore and Yakov Trenin in Monday's 4-3 win over the Blackhawks. The 25-year-old Jones is still searching for his first NHL point -- he has not gotten on the scoresheet over 16 games this year and 18 outings in his career. He has 14 shots on net, 32 hits, nine blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating in 2024-25. | None |
| Nov. 17, 2024 | Jones was brought up from AHL Iowa on Sunday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. - Jones could draw into the lineup Tuesday against St. Louis if Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body) isn't ready to go. Jones hasn't made in an appearance in the NHL since the 2021-22 campaign with Vegas. The left-shot forward has been productive in the AHL this season -- he's recorded four goals and eight assists across 14 contests. | None |
| Oct. 5, 2024 | Jones was placed on waivers by the Wild on Saturday. - Jones is expected to pass through waivers and be sent to AHL Iowa. The center had 21 goals, 22 assists and 59 PIM in 72 regular-season appearances with AHL Calgary in 2023-24. | None |
| July 1, 2024 | Jones signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Wild on Monday. - Jones had 21 goals, 43 points and 59 PIM in 72 regular-season contests with AHL Calgary in 2023-24. The 25-year-old has appeared in two career NHL games, recording no points, two PIM and four hits over those outings. | None |
| Oct. 2, 2023 | Per Chris Johnston of TSN, Jones was put on waivers Monday. - Jones amassed 17 goals, 54 points and 63 PIM in 71 games with AHL Calgary last season. The 24-year-old didn't see any NHL action with the Flames after playing in two contests with Vegas during the 2021-22 campaign. | None |
| July 6, 2023 | Jones signed a one-year, two-way contract with Calgary on Thursday. - Jones had 17 goals and 54 points in 71 contests with AHL Calgary in 2022-23. The 24-year-old has no points, four hits and one block in two career NHL outings. | None |
| Oct. 2, 2022 | Jones was waived by Calgary on Sunday, per CapFriendly. - Jones was held scoreless in two games with Vegas last season but tallied 41 points in 66 AHL appearances. A seventh-round pick in 2017, the 23-year-old will likely spend most of the year in the minors. | None |
| Nov. 26, 2021 | Jones was assigned to AHL Henderson on Friday. - Jones has drawn into just two games with the Golden Knights this season, going scoreless while averaging 8:03 of ice time per contest over that span. He could be in for an extended stay in the minors. | None |
| Nov. 18, 2021 | Jones was promoted from AHL Henderson on Thursday. - A seventh-round pick in the 2017 NHL Draft, this will be Jones' first stint at the NHL level. The 22-year-old has four goals and six points in 12 appearances with AHL Henderson this season. He'll most likely be a healthy scratch for Thursday's game against Detroit. | None |
