Regardless, the point of the pool I believe is not to pick the best players, but to get the most points. And as good as Jones is (I am hoping he somehow falls to us in June), I doubt very much that he leads defensemen in points in the tourney.

For what it's worth, he has 5 more points than Wotherspoon, having played 2 more games. And fewer points than Pouliot, who could not earn a spot on the Cdn team.
I'm going to say that season stats get pretty much thrown out the window in a short tournament like this. My guess is Jones will be getting more minutes than almost any other player in the tournament. First line PP and PK.
