Nothing like Jones has come up yet. He doesn't really have a comparable. Incredibly athletic and a huge defenceman with both finesse and power.

With that said, I wont be upset if the Flames pass on him, I just think he's been given short shrift.
When was the last top 5 D to live up to his billing. You could add the Johnsons, Barker, Hedman, Bogosian etc. to Bouw as not living up to their billing Even though some of these guys are pretty good there is no way in hell they are better than Tavares, Stamkos and other forwards that their teams could of picked instead. It just never seems to work out better opportunity costwise.
