The New York Rangers drafted Zac Jones in the third round of the 2019 NHL Entry Draft, and thus far, the 22-year-old defenseman has played 38 games over three seasons. One of the main reasons he has yet to crack the lineup as a regular is the log jam in front of him with Adam Fox, K’Andre Miller, Ryan Lindgren, and Jacob Trouba patrolling the blueline.
Besides a few bona fide NHL stars, Jones has yet to make an impact when playing with the Rangers, scoring eight points with one goal. Additionally, he is minus-11, which means he’s been a liability when he gets a call-up.
