Jones' (shoulder) availability for Chicago's season opener is in question, according to Charlie Roumeliotis of NBC Sports Chicago.

EDGE Analysis

Jones missed Friday's practice, though he was on the ice by himself. He experienced some soreness afterwards though. He scored five goals and 15 points in 51 contests last season.

Jones (undisclosed) didn't practice Tuesday, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones was injured last Sunday in preseason action against Minnesota. There hasn't been an update on his status for the Blackhawks yet, so consider him day-to-day for now.

Jones inked a one-year, $1.35 million deal with Chicago on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Jones logged 51 games with the Hawks last year in which he tallied five goals, 10 assists and 57 shots while averaging 16:43 of ice time. With the departures of Erik Gustafsson and Calvin de Haan, the 25-year-old Jones should be a regular starter for the team this year, though his offensive ceiling likely remains in the 25-point range.

Jones scored a goal in Wednesday's 4-3 win over Vegas.

EDGE Analysis

Jones intercepted a pass in the offensive zone before firing a wrister past Logan Thompson to give Chicago a 3-2 lead. The goal was his first point since March 26 and his first goal since March 12. The 25-year-old defenseman now has five goals and nine assists in 50 games this season while adding 77 hits and 57 blocked shots.

Jones scored twice in a 6-3 win over Ottawa on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The younger Jones has picked up his pace in the last three weeks. He has just 11 points in 35 games this season, but seven of those points have come in his last eight games. There's little category coverage in Jones' game, but that kind of 5-on-5 offense from a defender still counts for something.

Jones provided an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Jones has found more success on offense lately with a goal and four helpers in his last seven outings. He saw a larger role when the Blackhawks were missing defensemen, but Jones was back on the third pairing Tuesday. The 24-year-old has nine points, 36 shots on net, 47 hits, 39 blocked shots, a plus-3 rating and 10 PIM through 34 appearances.

Jones produced an assist, three shots on goal and a plus-5 rating in Wednesday's 8-5 win over the Red Wings.

EDGE Analysis

While not directly involved in the offense outside of helping out on an Alex DeBrincat goal, Jones was able to make things happen when he was on the ice. The 24-year-old had arguably one of his best games of the season in 15:00 of ice time. The American blueliner is up to four points, 23 shots on net, 22 hits, 19 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 20 appearances.

Jones finished with three blocked shots in a 4-2 win over the Blue Jackets on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Jones has not provided much offensively this season. The defenseman has one goal and two assists in 13 games.

Jones logged an assist, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

Jones helped out on a Dylan Strome goal in the second period. With three points in his last three outings, Jones has started to get a bit more comfortable after missing the whole first month of the season due to a wrist injury. The American has nine shots on net, 13 hits and a plus-2 rating in 10 contests overall, though his offense will need to see a bit of an uptick to make him useful across fantasy formats.

Jones scored the game-winning goal and added a power-play assist in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime win over the Capitals.

EDGE Analysis

The multi-point effort accounted for Jones' first contribution on offense. He tallied at 1:21 of overtime, burying a rebound from a Kirby Dach shot. Jones has added six shots on net, 11 hits and a minus-1 rating in eight appearances, as a wrist injury and an illness have made it difficult for him to stay in the lineup early in the season.
