Jones distributed an assist, placed three shots on net and dished out two hits in Thursday's 3-1 win over Boston.

EDGE Analysis

Jones ricocheted a shot off Boston netminder Jeremy Swayman that led to Jones' new linemate, Quinn Hutson, scoring on the rebound for his first NHL goal. With the helper, Jones notched his first point of the season to go along with three shots on goal, six hits and a block through two games. His ice time has been held to less than six minutes in each of his two outings, capping his offensive potential from a checking-line role for the Oilers. When he does play, he offers a nice blend of category coverage stats, given the small sample size.

Jones has been called up from AHL Bakersfield on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Jones has five goals, seven points and 49 PIM in 17 outings with Bakersfield in 2025-26. He hasn't played in the NHL yet this season, but the 27-year-old has recorded 32 goals, 64 points and 229 PIM in 284 career regular-season games at the top level. If he draws into Edmonton's lineup, it would likely be as a member of the fourth line.

Jones (undisclosed) was placed on waivers by the Oilers for the purpose of assignment to AHL Bakersfield, the team announced Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Jones' inclusion on waivers implies that he's recovered from his injury. The 27-year-old had a goal, two points, 18 PIM and 71 hits in 26 regular-season appearances between Boston and Edmonton last year. It's possible that a team will claim Jones to use in a fourth-line role, but if he does clear waivers, then he would be among Edmonton's top call-up options.

Coach Kris Knoblauch said Friday that Jones (undisclosed) will miss Friday's game in Vancouver but will be ready for the start of the regular season, per as.

EDGE Analysis

Jones split last season between Boston and Edmonton, scoring a goal and an assist in 19 games with the Oilers after going scoreless in seven regular-season contests with the Bruins. Look for Jones to play a bottom-six role this season.

Jones will be out of action for Wednesday's matchup versus the Kraken, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

EDGE Analysis

The team didn't provide specifics regarding Jones' injury, but the Oilers did say he might still be an option for the preseason finale versus Vancouver on Friday. In 19 regular-season appearances for Edmonton last year, the 27-year-old winger notched one goal, one assist and 57 hits while averaging just 9:09 of ice time. Looking ahead to the upcoming campaign, Jones could struggle to make regular appearances for the club and might serve as a healthy scratch periodically.

Jones scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Jones stretched the Oilers' lead to 2-0 in the second period. The winger had gone 17 games without a point prior to Wednesday after earning an assist in his debut with the team. The 27-year-old totaled just those two points with 17 shots on net, 71 hits and a minus-13 rating across 26 appearances between the Oilers and the Bruins this season. Jones may not be in the lineup for every game of the playoffs once all of Leon Draisaitl (undisclosed), Zach Hyman (undisclosed), Trent Frederic (ankle) and Evander Kane (knee) are healthy.

Jones has logged one assist over 16 games since he was traded to the Oilers from the Bruins on March 4.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old has been scratched just three times, though the Oilers' plethora of injuries has likely helped him stay in the lineup. Jones has just one helper, 13 shots on net, 61 hits and a minus-12 rating over 23 appearances this season. If Edmonton gets to full health in the playoffs, Jones could be at risk of being a healthy scratch.

Jones logged an assist, two shots on goal and three hits in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Canadiens.

EDGE Analysis

This was Jones' first point at the NHL level this season. He went scoreless in seven outings with the Bruins before a trade Tuesday brought him into the Oilers' organization. He pushed Jeff Skinner out of the lineup for Thursday's game, though both players could lose out when fellow trade acquisition Trent Frederic (lower body) is ready for his team debut. Jones offers some physicality and could improve Edmonton's bottom six, but he isn't likely to play a large enough role to be a factor in fantasy.

Jones was called up from AHL Bakersfield on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Jones was just acquired from the Bruins on Tuesday. The 27-year-old winger failed to record a point over seven NHL appearances with Boston this season. He has 62 points across 265 career games in the NHL, and he should provide a little physicality and forward depth for the Oilers.

Jones, Trent Frederic and Petr Hauser were dealt to Edmonton from the Bruins on Tuesday in exchange for Max Wanner, a 2025 second-round pick and a 2026 fourth-round selection.

EDGE Analysis

Jones, who has been in the minors since Jan. 30, will head west to provide depth for a playoff-bound Edmonton club. The 27-year-old forward did not register a point across seven games with the Bruins this season. Jones will most likely report to AHL Bakersfield.
