Jones recorded his ninth goal of the season in a 5-3 loss to Minnesota on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Jones had missed the previous two games, but appeared no worse for the wear Wednesday. He has never been a fantasy dynamo, but seems to be even less of an offensive factor this season, racking up only 65 shots and 15 points in 54 games.

Jones (lower body) will return to the lineup Wednesday against the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
After skipping out on the previous two contests due to the lower-body issue, Jones will make his return to the lineup Wednesday. Even so, the veteran doesn't really possess the offensive skills he once did. He's expected to serve as the right wing on the Flames' fourth line for the contest against the Wild, but remains a non-factor in season-long fantasy leagues.

Jones will actually miss Monday's game against the Ducks because of a lower-body injury.
EDGE Analysis
Once a formidable forward, Jones' offensive impact isn't nearly as much as in past seasons. To account for it, Jones has picked up his physical game, collecting 105 hits through 53 games while still totaling 64 shots on net and 14 points to keep himself useful. The veteran was expected to return to the lineup Monday, but the apparently the issue isn't behind him yet. Instead, he'll now aim to rejoin his teammates Wednesday when the Wild arrive in Calgary.

Jones (lower body) will make his return to the lineup Monday against Anaheim.
EDGE Analysis
The once-effective winger has just eight goals and six assists in 53 games this season, and has played on each of the Flames' forward lines at one point or another. Expect Jones to play on one of the bottom-two lines for Monday's tilt.

Jones (lower body) will not return to the lineup for Friday's game against the Coyotes, Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones exited Thursday's game after just 3:44 of action due to the lower-body issue issue, and it appears the team will add Josh Jooris to the lineup Friday to replace the ailing Jones. The added rest before the team's next contest Monday against the Ducks could be enough time to regain his health, but the Flames should again update the veteran's status prior to then.

Jones suffered a lower-body injury in Thursday's game against the Sharks and will not return
EDGE Analysis
Jones skated just 3:44 total in Thursday's game before exiting with the injury, failing to make an impact in the box score. The 6-foot-2, 210 winger offers a physical presence (103 hits) when he's on the ice, but his early exit Thursday could result in some time missed. Expect the Flames to update his status prior to Friday's game against the Coyotes.

Jones is currently mired in a 10-game scoreless streak after not finding the scoresheet in Tuesday's 4-3 victory against Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Jones put up a decent 30-point season in 2014-15, but has struggled to duplicate that this year. He's also only put seven shots on goal during that 10-game span, evidence that he is really not a factor in Calgary's offense.

Jones played less than 10 minutes in a 5-2 loss to the Hurricanes on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Jones usually is up near the 13-minute range in playing time, but saw a lot less of the ice on Sunday. He has skated quite a bit with Sean Monahan and Johnny Gaudreau this season but has not seen an uptick in production, as he is at 14 points in 46 games.

Jones netted a goal in a 3-1 victory over the Lightning on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Jones snapped a six-game scoreless streak with the goal. He's about on pace to replicate his 30-point performance from a year ago, and that's right around his ceiling for production.

Jones (lower body) is "good to go" for Tuesday's game against the Sharks, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The FAN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones exited Friday's contest after playing just 2:07 due to the lower-body issue, and didn't take part in practice Sunday. However, he rejoined his teammates at practice Monday, and appears set to play alongside Johnny Gaudreau and Sean Monahan once again Tuesday.
