Can't say I'm excited about the deal. 3 years at 4 million for Jones is pretty steep. It does make the team bigger and a younger. I suppose pending UFA O'Brien can garner a slightly better return at the deadline in 2015 than Sarich could this year. Still seems like the Flames took on more money in terms of total dollars owed in hopes of improving the chemistry on a rebuilding team.

Oh well, O'Brien will love the Stampede.
