I think if he got moved down to the 2nd pairing on a good team against lesser opponents he would look so much better. But what team with a very good first pairing has the cap space and the stupidity to make such a trade?

If Edmonton had the cap space, I could see them doing something like this. They will think their first pairing is elite, and maybe Chicago picks up some of their one year cap crap, Edmonton signs brother Jones and away they go.

Juts pure speculation, but Seth was a Bowman move, and they've been backtracking on that ever since he got the boot.

Seth Jones has a 9.5 million dollar cap hit until 2030. One of the worst deals in the league, he won’t be moved.
