  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Records power-play assist in win

    Jones had a power-play assist and one shot on goal in Saturday's 4-3 win over Montreal.

    Jones sent a pass to the slot that eventually landed on the stick of Will Cuylle, who found Kaapo Kakko netside for the game-winning goal. It was the third assist in four games since Jones returned from a lower-body injury. The power-play point was his first of the season.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Set to play

    Jones (upper body) is expected to return to action against St. Louis on Monday, according to Denis P. Gorman of Newsday.

    Jones will return to his third-pairing role and see power-play time on the second unit following a one-game absence. He has one goal, four assists, 12 shots on net, 10 blocked shots and seven hits across 13 appearances this season. The Rangers don't have an extra defenseman on the roster after assigning Chad Ruhwedel and Victor Mancini to AHL Hartford on Sunday.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Not available Saturday

    Jones will miss Saturday's tilt in Edmonton due to an upper-body injury, Colin Stephenson of Newsday reports.

    Jones will be replaced in the lineup by Victor Mancini. Jones has a goal and five points in 13 games this season. Consider jones day-to-day at this time, and he could return to action as early as Monday against St. Louis.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Scores first goal of campaign

    Jones scored a goal and went plus-2 in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Kraken.

    Jones has a goal and three assists over six games since he reclaimed a third-pairing spot in the lineup. With Victor Mancini down at AHL Hartford, Jones has had an easier time staying in the lineup over veteran Chad Ruhwedel. For the season, Jones has five points, nine shots on net, eight blocked shots, seven hits and a plus-10 rating across 11 appearances. He's over halfway to setting a new career high in points.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Adds assist in loss

    Jones notched an assist in Thursday's 6-1 loss to the Sabres.

    Jones has a helper in each of the last two games, which should help him solidify a spot on the third pairing. He also received some power-play time in the blowout loss, which could give him a better path to fantasy production if it sticks. He has three assists, five shots on net, a plus-6 rating, six blocked shots and four hits over seven appearances. Jones continues to compete with Victor Mancini for a spot in the lineup.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Provides assist in win

    Jones logged an assist and four blocked shots in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Islanders.

    Jones started the year as a consistent part of the lineup, but with the Rangers fully healthy on the blue line, he's in competition with Victor Mancini for playing time. The 24-year-old Jones is up to two assists, a plus-5 rating, four shots on net, three hits and five blocked shots over six appearances this season. If the Rangers prioritize having an even righty-lefty split on their blue line, Jones may find himself out of the lineup frequently moving forward as the team's fourth left-handed defenseman.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Contributes helper

    Jones notched an assist in Monday's 4-1 win over the Red Wings.

    Jones' helper was his first point of the year, but he's been steady with a plus-3 rating through three contests. The 23-year-old defenseman has filled a spot on the third pairing to begin the year, but he may lose his place in the lineup once Ryan Lindgren (upper body) returns to action.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Making most of opportunities

    Jones dished out an assist in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Islanders.

    Jones picked up his sixth helper of the season on Kaapo Kakko's third-period insurance goal. After spending the majority of the season in the press box as the team's seventh defenseman, Jones has dressed in each of the last six games with Jacob Trouba (lower body) sidelined. Jones has seen sheltered minutes, but the skilled defenseman has held his own with two assists and a plus-3 rating during this six-game stretch. With Ryan Lindgren (lower body) potentially poised to miss time as well after exiting Sunday's win, Jones is unlikely to leave the lineup anytime soon.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Just one appearance in February

    Jones watched Thursday's 5-1 win over the Devils from the press box and has been a healthy scratch since Feb. 5.

    Jones played in the Rangers' first game of the month as Jacob Trouba finished up a two-game suspension, but New York's seventh defenseman hasn't been called upon since that Feb. 5 win over the Avalanche. Jones remains stuck on five points in 17 appearances this season.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Memorable night in win

    Jones scored a goal, added an assist and posted a plus-4 rating in Saturday's 7-2 win over Ottawa.

    It was his first goal of the season, and it was memorable -- he finished a cross-slot pass, and the goal stood as the winner. Jones has excellent offensive instincts, but it's been hard for him to crack the lineup this campaign. He also won't get any power-play time behind Adam Fox and Erik Gustafsson. Jones has five points, 19 shots on goal and 12 blocked shots in 16 appearances this season.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Tacks on helper

    Jones registered an assist in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Bruins.

    Jones is rounding out the blue line with Adam Fox (lower body) on long-term injured reserve. The Blueshirts have the option of turning to undrafted defenseman Connor Mackey as a reinforcement option, but he has yet to debut for the Original Six club, and Jones has more upside as a third-round (No. 68 overall) pick from the 2019 NHL Entry Draft. Jones' point total is comprised of three assists through 10 games, which isn't all that bad for a guy averaging only 12:52 of ice time.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Likely to play Saturday

    Jones could draw into the lineup Saturday against the Wild, as Adam Fox (lower body) was unable to finish Thursday's 2-1 win over the Hurricanes.

    Jones has been a spectator for all but one game during the Rangers' 8-2-0 start. In his lone appearance, the 23-year-old blueliner had four shots and a minus-2 rating in 12:30 TOI against the Blue Jackets on Oct. 14. A return timetable for Fox has yet to be established, but he'll likely miss at least one game after Carolina's Sebastian Aho went knee-on-knee on the star blueliner Thursday. If Fox is out of the lineup Saturday, Jones would be a candidate for ice time on the second power-play unit.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Inks two-year extension

    Jones, who was eligible to become a restricted free agent this summer, signed a two-year contract extension with the Rangers on Friday.

    Jones will carry an $812,500 annual cap hit, according to PuckPedia. The 22-year-old had a goal and two points in 16 contests with the Rangers last season. He also recorded eight goals and 31 points in 54 outings with AHL Hartford. Jones will compete for an NHL roster spot during training camp.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Sent to minors

    Jones was reassigned to AHL Hartford on Saturday.

    Jones needs to be playing and that was not the case with the Rangers, as he had been a healthy scratch in six of the last 11 games. The 22-year-old has a goal and an assist in 16 NHL games and will now get a chance to get plenty of ice time in the AHL.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Pots winner for first career goal

    Jones scored the game-winning goal and added an assist in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Stars.

    Both points came in the third period as the Rangers broke open a 3-3 tie. Jones had zero points in 27 NHL games coming into Saturday, but the 2019 third-round pick showed flashes of offense in in the AHL last season with nine goals and 35 points in 52 contests. The 22-year-old even saw time on the second power-play unit in this one, and now that he's gotten onto the scoresheet with the Rangers, the next task in front of Jones is to lock down a regular spot on the blue line.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Not playing Friday

    Jones is not in Friday's lineup against the Jets, Colin Stephenson of Newsday reports.

    It sounds like Jones will be a healthy scratch, but if he's dealing with any sort of injury, there should be more information on his status in the coming days. He averaged 13:57 of ice time during the first two games of the year.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Sent down Thursday

    Jones was reassigned to AHL Hartford on Thursday, per CapFriendly.

    Jones played Wednesday versus the Canadiens as the Rangers opted to rest players ahead of the playoffs. The 21-year-old is unlikely to be a factor at the NHL level in the postseason.

  • Rangers' Zac Jones: Elevated from minors

    Jones was called up from AHL Hartford on Wednesday.

    Jones has yet to score his first NHL despite playing in 21 games for the Rangers over the last two seasons. Despite the lack of goals, the 21-year-old blueliner has had some offensive success with six helpers, 19 shots and 12 hits in those outings. The addition of Jones could point to an injury among the Rangers' blueliners, though it could be simply a way to add more depth before the postseason.
