26yrs: Jones (2010-11); 27-18-45 in 70 games. Tanguay (05-06); 29-49-78 in 71 games.
27yrs: Jones (2011-12); 20-17-37 in 72 games. Tanguay (06-07); 22-59-81 in 81 games.
And those are Jones' two best years.
Jones does bring size and relative youth to the team, but is most certainly worth less in terms of trade value.

Thanks for the info. (seriously) but we didn't trade 2005 Tanguay for Jones, we traded 2013 Tanguay for Jones, so, in my opinion, the comparable should be current numbers. The only way to say what each is worth comparably is if they were each traded now, and see what they receive.
