The Boston Bruins sign power forward Max Jones in NHL free agency. In this video I look at Jones’s NHL career so far. I also give my thoughts on the contract and Jones as a player.
Hello from Winnipeg.The home away from home for our Boston Bruins.Happy Canada Day 🇨🇦.It’s been awhile since you’ve had a post.Good to hear from you.GO BRUINS 🇨🇦🐈🏒🍺💀.
Bruins need to make top priority now to beginning Swayman and then maybe add a winger with whatever cap space is left!? They gotta get Swayman signed asap tho then they can go from there!? Hopefully they can sign Sway and bring in a speedy scoring winger!?
If Jones is playing any higher up than 4th line then I think you are doing it wrong. Geekie scored 30 points in limited ice time and had (up until this season ironically enough) proven he could win faceoffs as a center. Which is what got him in the door for us. Now for us he wasn't winning many faceoffs so found himself shifted to the wing (until the playoffs where Zacha vanished and lost his job to Geekie). As it stands right now your third line would Poitras centering which ever of Frederic or Geekie that you don't slot in DeBrusks former wing slot, and Brazeau. I'm not pulling Brazeau out of that slot for Jones. That's if he even earns the slot. Brown, Lettieri, Tufte for vets are also going to be looking for that slot and you have a couple of internals guys in Nelson and Kuntar who I imagine are going to want that last 4th line slot as well. And that's all assuming none of the better kids Lysell, Merk, Farinnacia push for the 2nd line winger slot and get it. Cause you certainly aren't giving Jones 3rd line time over Frederic or Geekie if they are both on the line.
This signing…. Like what the Celtics and the Red Sox have started doing…. Is a page from the Belichick play book. Seems to me the Pats did very well with low risk, low cost moves on a one year note to win championships. Where do you think the other New England teams learned it from?
Half of the people here have no clue about hockey. Sweeney is doing the same thing he did with Heinen and Geekie. Let a player in a bad system show everyone he is a good player. I would gladly take a big winger who averages 1 pt every 4 games on the 4th line. Jones brings his A game every night and will be eager to prove himself in Boston. It also brings in more competition for lines 3 & 4 and solid player/fill in if someone goes out injured. Great move GM!

I think it's a good thing.

Played for Dale Hunter. They develop players for pro. Pain in the ass to play against.
