Seth Jones with one of the worst giveaways I’ve seen

Steve Smith politely says not to fast now



Just to put this goal in perspective by the way, it was the game winning goal in Game 7 for the Flames(they won 3-2), thus stopping the Oilers streak of 2 consecutive cups

jones isn’t exactly a high IQ player. Lots of tools, but no tool box. Should be a much more effective player than he actually is.
 
Toronto fans so obsessed with Jones, pretty hilarious really. Yeah, that was awful, he’s had some mistakes, management’s said it’ll take time to get him fully settled in. He’s had some terrific games and he’s had moments like that.

He was supposed to be on the 2nd pair with Mikkola to learn the system with Ekblad continuing to play on the top pair, Ekblad got suspended which pushed Jones to the top pair and playing more minutes.

But, keep hoping I guess.
 
I never bought an ounce of the hype for this guy. Not when he was a prospect, and never in his nhl career.

He's big with average skills and mediocre hockey IQ.
Yup. There is usually a high minute D man, who gets a lot of hype, on bad teams. He’s often why the club is losing so much.
 
All I’ve been hearing from Panthers fans is how good jones is and 7M is now a steal for him. Is he really even worth 7M?

Check out this giveaway from last nights game. Absolutely awful.



That's a good play, if he's on the opposite zone.

The team is going nowhere this season. He's got years to figure it out. I think he will, just need to figure out the 1RD because it shouldn't be him.

I remember he used to be quite an HF Boards darling (circa 2019) and analytics people never thought very highly of him.

He's a big guy who can skate and log a lot of minutes, but he's never been a particularly intelligent player. I wasn't happy about the trade because I thought he would probably be a solid to good top four defenseman on the Panthers (who have Forsling and Ekblad). Ekblad had to be an idiot and get himself suspended, and I have a feeling he may go to another team in the summer. I don't think having Jones as a top two defenseman will bode well for the Panthers if they want to win again. We'll see if they bring in someone else to replace Ekblad in the event that they do move on from him.
