Penguins Place Jones on IR
The Penguins have placed Caleb Jones on IR. The 28-year-old defenseman suffered a lower-body injury while blocking a shot during the third period of the Pens’ victory over the Panthers on Thursday night.
He’s expected to miss eight weeks.
Although his metrics and stats (a lone assist in seven games) aren’t anything to write home about, by the eye test Jones seemed to be doing an effective job as Harrison Brunicke’s regular partner. In particular, I’ve been impressed with Caleb’s skating and ability to make smart, little plays.
