Jones will defend the home net in Saturday's game versus the Wild, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones has lost five straight starts while posting an .852 save percentage and a 4.11 GAA. Two of those losses were to the Wild, but Jones is still the Sharks' best option in net because Devan Dubnyk was traded to Colorado. The Wild are red-hot right now, winning six straight games while averaging 4.33 goals.

Jones will man the road crease Monday in Vegas, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones has struggled recently, dropping each of his last four starts while allowing 16 goals in 10 periods of hockey. Getting back on track will be exceedingly difficult against a Vegas team that's 16-4-2 in its own building. Given that context, Jones' fantasy managers are advised to look for other options if possible.

Jones allowed five goals on 24 shots before he was relieved by Josef Korenar for the third period of Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
Jones got the start in back-to-back games, but the second one was much worse than the first. The 31-year-old goalie has gone 3-3-0 in six starts against the Wild this season. He's at 15-12-2 overall with a 3.25 GAA and an .896 save percentage through 30 appearances. It's not likely to get much easier as the Sharks finish their road trip with a visit to the Golden Knights on Monday and Wednesday.

Jones is in a rough patch, as he's lost three straight starts while posting an .810 save percentage. He's endured some highs and lows all year, as he's posted a 15-11-2 record and an .899 save percentage. The Wild enter Saturday's game with a 3-1-1- record over the last five contests while averaging 3.8 goals.

Jones gave up three goals on 18 shots in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
The Wild were done scoring after the 3:20 mark of the second period, and the Sharks' offense wasn't able to bail Jones out. The 31-year-old goalie slipped to 15-11-2 with a 3.14 GAA and an .899 save percentage in 29 outings. Jones will likely serve as backup to Josef Korenar for Saturday's rematch with the Wild.

Jones will start between the pipes in Friday's road game versus the Wild, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones struggled in his last start Monday against Anaheim, surrendering four goals on just 21 shots en route to a 4-0 loss. The 31-year-old netminder will attempt to snap his two-game losing streak in a tough road matchup with a Minnesota team that's 15-4-0 at home this season.

Jones allowed four goals on 21 shots in Monday's 4-0 loss to the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
Jones didn't get any help from his Sharks teammates, who were blanked by Ducks goalie Anthony Stolarz. Monday was Jones' third loss in his last four games, and also the third time in that span he's surrendered four goals. The 31-year-old dropped to 15-10-2 with a 3.14 GAA and a .900 save percentage in 28 outings. Jones will likely see the bulk of the starts over the last month of the season, but Josef Korenar and Alexei Melnichuk are also expected to get turns in the crease.

Jones will guard the home net in Monday's game versus the Ducks, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones should take on a workhorse role down the stretch after Devan Dubnyk was traded to Colorado. Through the last seven games, Jones has recorded a .917 save percentage and a 5-2-0 record. The Ducks have lost five of their last six contests while a mere two goals.

Jones surrendered four goals on 19 shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Jones wasn't very effective in the second half of a back-to-back, as a three-goal second period by the Kings was enough to seal his fate. The 31-year-old was relieved by Josef Korenar for the final 20 minutes. Jones dropped to 15-9-2 with a 3.11 GAA and a .903 save percentage through 27 outings. After trading Devan Dubnyk to the Avalanche on Saturday, the Sharks intend to incorporate Korenar and Alexei Melnichuk into games over the final month of the season. That could lead to less playing time than expected for Jones.
