Jones scored twice in AHL Calgary's 5-4 loss to San Jose on Friday.
Jones is up to six goals, two assists and 14 shots on net over six appearances. He's already halfway to matching his AHL goal total from last year, which came in 37 contests when he wasn't filling a depth role for the Wild at the NHL level. Jones will probably spend most of 2026-27 with the AHL club, but he could get rewarded with a call-up if he continues to play well.
