The thing about Jones is that you have to accept that he is not the guy people thought he had potential to be, and he is overpriced.
Fortunately for the Flames, he's the perfect fit. We have lots of salary/cap space. We have skilled forwards. We need a big body who can muck it up a little and wear the other team down a little. That's what Jones has become for us, and he's excelled at it.
If we were up against the cap, you can guarantee Jones would be the whipping boy.
