No. Jones isn't very good and won't help the pick improve maybe at all.

An unprotected 2023 1st in one of the best drafts in recent memory is a big no. That could backfire so badly.

"Jones isn't very good" LMAO apparently you don't watch him play because that is completely inaccurate.

He's $1m TO $2m overpaid.. but no expert would say "Jones isn't very good" and at $5M locked in long term is an absolute steal...one of the best contracts in the NHL at that price. He also wouldn't be playing behind Dahlin because as of now, there is zero question that jones is the better player.

Hawks won't retain that kind of money for that long regardless of the pick.

Jones advanced stats have always been bad. Thats why everyone mocked Chicago for trading for him and that contract. Dahlin is better, i dont know why you tried to compare them

People don’t realize that being overpaid does not mean you’re bad. Jones at $5 mil for 8 years is insane value. After watching him every game this past year, the Jones slander is 100% unwarranted.

That is exactly my thought process, a deal like this would never happen as no owner is going to eat 30 mil

You seem to over react at literally anything Sabres. You wouldn't want Jones for anything? I can understand the first, but not a package of maybe two seconds and a decent prospect? Let's be real here guy.

Would you trade 2 2nds and a decent prospect for Ristolainen? Guy

LMAO, advanced stats are the indicator for you? Do you watch him play regularly? You will not find one NHL coach that says he's bad. Dahlin has room to grow, he's not at Jone's level yet.

Everyone mocked Chicago because of collectively what they gave up and the contract they gave them, has nothing to do with Jones being bad. Jones is $1m to $2m overpaid for sure, and they gave up too much to overpay him long term...those are true, but he's a stud player.

Never said Jones was bad, just saying your comment about Jones being the better player with zero question was comedy. They are on par now and by next season Dahlin will continue to grow and be better than Jones. Try and change my mind

Your lack of talent in evaluating the players is pure comedy. Dahlin may be better one day soon, but not yet he's not.

Don't need to try to change your mind, I'm not Jones fan and was highly critical of the price they paid and the contract they handed to him, but there is zero doubt he's a #1 on a lot of teams and a lock for first line on almost every team. Dahlin still needs to grow and he has a good chance passing up Jones, but Jones's IQ, playing the game with pace, and ability to move the puck is superior as of now. I'm frankly higher on Owen Power's ceiling then Dahlin.

Jones is not much better than Risto. Seth Jones is one of the most overrated players in the league

What else is there to know? Worst +/- on the team, green jacket qualifier, 3rd on the team blocked shots 10th on the team in hits given. But he skates pretty so we should forget all that i guess
