We’ve talked a lot about Seth Jones here since he arrived. He’s been a polarizing player throughout his tenure in Chicago, and fans either don’t like him at all or defend him to a fault. Those who don’t like Jones generally like to throw around comments on social media like “trade him for a bag of pucks” or “buy him out” without considering the actual value of a right-handed defenseman who can skate 24-25 minutes per night.
In Thursday’s “Insider Trading” segment on TSN, Darren Dreger reported that teams are calling the Blackhawks about Jones.
“I mean, that name is a surprise to me but again let’s not play with semantics here,” Dreger said. “It’s not like Kyle Davidson and the Chicago Blackhawks are shopping the defenseman. I mean, he’s got a pile of years left at $9.5 million AAV. His contract doesn’t expire until 2029-30 and he has the full no-move clause across the board. But look, he’s a quality defenseman. And yes, teams are calling and they’re asking about Seth Jones’ availability. So it’s going to be something that we have to continue to watch as Kyle Davidson, again, puts some form of stamp in this fight thru the rebuild of the Chicago Blackhawks.”
Would the Blackhawks have to retain money in a deal? More than likely — especially if they want to get quality assets (read: not a bad contract with term) back in a trade. And keep in mind that Jones does have the Bowman Special (full no-move clause contract) in his back pocket.
But this is a reminder that hockey people outside this market still see value in the player.
