Jones will patrol the crease during Friday's game versus the Blues, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones had one of his best games of the season in his last start Saturday against Anaheim, stopping 26 of 27 shots en route to a 3-1 win. He'll try to pick up his ninth victory of the campaign in a tough home matchup with a St. Louis team that's 10-3-2 on the road this year.

Jones saved 26 of 27 shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
The Ducks had their chances, but Jones was up to the task to pick up his second win in his last four outings. The 31-year-old hadn't played in the last three games as Devan Dubnyk seemed to be the hot hand. Jones improved to 8-6-1 with a 3.64 GAA and an .884 save percentage in 16 outings. Both of the Sharks' goalies were good against the Ducks, but a tougher challenge awaits when they visit the Golden Knights on Monday and Wednesday.

Jones will patrol the crease during Saturday's road game against Anaheim, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones was awful in his last start March 5 versus Vegas, surrendering three goals on just eight shots before being replaced by Devan Dubnyk in the second period of the eventual 5-4 loss. He'll attempt to shake off that poor performance and pick up his eighth win of the season in a favorable road matchup with a Ducks team that's 4-9-3 at home this year.

Jones yielded three goals on eight shots in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Jones was replaced by Devan Dubnyk after allowing a goal to Max Pacioretty early in the second period. The Sharks' offense bailed out Jones, so he didn't take a loss, but the ugly outing inflated his GAA to 3.84 with an .879 save percentage in 15 games. Dubnyk allowed two goals on 19 shots over the bulk of two periods, but that workload makes it uncertain which goalie will start Saturday's rematch against the Golden Knights.

Jones will get the starting nod at home against the Golden Knights on Friday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones is sporting a 2-4-1 record and a 3.74 GAA in his last seven contests, including giving up three goals on 26 shots in his previous matchup with Vegas. With seven wins in 14 appearances, the 31-year-old Jones will almost certainly miss out on the 30-win mark for a second straight season.

Jones gave up four goals on 38 shots in a 4-0 loss to the Avalanche on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Jones beat the Avalanche in Monday's 6-2 win, but the Sharks weren't able to replicate that outburst of offense Wednesday. The 31-year-old Jones instead fell to 7-6-1 with a 3.72 GAA and an .884 save percentage through 14 appearances. Both Jones and Devan Dubnyk have been wildly inconsistent this season, so it's tough to trust either of them in a back-to-back versus the Golden Knights on Friday and Saturday.

Jones will guard the home goal during Wednesday's clash with Colorado, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones had one of his better games of the year in his last start Monday against the Avs, stopping 33 of 35 shots en route to a blowout 6-2 victory. He'll attempt to secure his eighth win of the season in a rematch with the same Colorado club that will be without two of its top defenders in Cale Makar (upper body) and Bowen Byram (upper body).

Jones stopped 33 of 35 shots in Monday's 6-2 win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
After the Avalanche took a 2-0 lead in the second period, it appeared to be another long night for Jones. Instead, the Sharks rallied to tie the game and just kept going, while the 31-year-old goalie silenced the opposition. Jones improved to 7-5-1 with a 3.28 GAA and an .896 save percentage after one of his better outings of the year. It's just the third time in 13 games he's allowed two or fewer goals. That should be enough to earn Jones another starting nod in Wednesday's rematch with the Avalanche.

Jones will guard the home goal in Monday's game versus the Avalanche, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
EDGE Analysis
Devan Dubnyk got lit up in Saturday's 7-6 loss to the Blues, so Jones will return to the blue paint. The 31-year-old Jones struggled in February with an .880 save percentage, but he received enough offensive support to propel him to a 3-3-1 record in that stretch. The matchup against Nathan MacKinnon and the Avalanche is certainly daunting, even if Cale Makar (upper body) is sitting out.

Jones and the Sharks' game against the Golden Knights on Thursday has been postponed following the news that an unnamed San Jose player entered the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Jones will have to wait for Saturday's game versus St. Louis for his next potential opportunity to start in goal. He hasn't been great thus far this season, having registered a 6-5-1 record while posting a sub-par 3.39 GAA and .877 save percentage in 12 appearances.
