Thread: If Jones doesnt want to sign long term
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ajp_18</b></div><div>If Jones were smart he’d resign in Columbus as they would likely be willing to pay more for him than anyone else.

That being said that is an overpayment for Jones, though all the haters on here don’t watch him play they just look at the stats, only advanced stats, which for Jones they suck and don’t tell his actual skill.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Viqsi</b></div><div>There's no point in discussing Jones trades on here, because he's been presented with the Official Jack Johnson Memorial Whipping Boy Status by advanced stats hangers-on and so all you'll get is a lot of "LOL OVURRATID DURR".</div></div>

The problem is, most of the people on here don’t see things that GMs in real life see. The intangibles, the on ice impacts, the locker room impact, and just sheer performance in clutch situations. Jones is also a right handed shot which is in short supply around the league. Teams pay a premium for players like that.
