Before the injury.. He was decent (from an offense standpoint) in LA.. He put up some points and added some offense from the back end... The problem was, he couldn't play "D".... He was always out of position and always got burned. Not to mention he is soft as hell...

Good luck with that one Tampa... Oh yeah and after the injury his offense went away too... He was a worthless as Harrold...

I wish I could say that Jones got a bum rap while he was here, but he deserved all of the criticism he got. He's a defenseman that can't play a lick of defense, plain and simple. I'm assuming the fact that he's half decent offensively is the only reason why he's still in the league, which is why I wonder why he hasn't attempted to make the switch to wing in order to prolong his career.

I still shudder thinking about all of the mistakes as a Flyer. The only mistake he didn't make: taking out Patrice Bergeron.

Jones is decent/solid when healthy, but still is a decent keep for the Lightning, even if it is just for depth purposes
