Penguins' Caleb Jones: Lands on waivers
Jones was put on waivers Saturday for the purpose of being assigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.
Jones chipped in one assist, five shots on net, 15 blocked shots and 10 hits in seven regular-season appearances for Pittsburgh in 2025-26. If he goes unclaimed, he could see most of his playing time in the minors this campaign.

Penguins' Caleb Jones: Missing from injury report
Jones (shoulder) wasn't listed among Pittsburgh's injured players ahead of training camp Wednesday.
Jones was limited to just seven regular-season appearances with Pittsburgh in 2025-26 because of injury and a lengthy suspension. Looking ahead to 2026-27, the 29-year-old blueliner could secure a spot on the 23-man roster, but he could serve as a frequent healthy scratch.

Penguins' Caleb Jones: Moves to IR
Jones (shoulder) has been placed on injured reserve by the Penguins, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports Sunday.
The move is just a formality after the Penguins announced that Jones would miss the rest of the season due to shoulder surgery Friday. The 28-year-old's season officially comes to a close with one point in seven games at the NHL level.

Penguins' Caleb Jones: Undergoes shoulder surgery
Jones had right shoulder surgery and will be out 4-6 months, the Penguins announced Friday.
Jones hasn't played since Oct. 23 due to a lower-body injury and a 20-game suspension. The blueliner was already ruled out for the remainder of the season, so this announcement doesn't come as a surprise. The 28-year-old Texas native should be ready in time for the 2026-27 campaign, barring any setbacks.

Penguins' Caleb Jones: Season officially over
Jones will not return this season due to his lower-body injury, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports Thursday.
Jones was activated off non-roster injured reserve Wednesday in a move that seemed to indicate he'd be back in the lineup, but it seems his injury is worse than originally believed. The 28-year-old blueliner's 2025-26 campaign ends with him having played in just seven games, and he notched one assist, 10 hits and five assists.

Penguins' Caleb Jones: Suspension served
Jones (lower body) is eligible to return after completing his 20-game suspension.
Jones was recovering from a lower-body injury when he was handed a 20-game suspension for violating the league's Performance Enhancing Substances Program. Even if Jones is available to play ahead of Thursday's contest, he's far from a lock to step into the lineup ahead of Ryan Shea or Connor Clifton.

Penguins' Caleb Jones: On NHL roster
Jones (lower body) was taken off the non-roster list Wednesday, per the NHL media site.
Jones' activation comes as he finished serving a 20-game suspension for violating the NHL/NHLPA Performance Enhancing Substances Program while recovering from a lower-body problem. Even with Jones now eligible to play against the Lightning on Thursday, he's far from a lock to break into the lineup, especially with the Penguins having won two straight contests.

Penguins' Caleb Jones: Handed 20-game suspension
Jones (lower body) was suspended for 20 games by the NHL on Wednesday for violating the NHL/NHLPA Performance Enhancing Substances Program.
Jones had been on injured reserve due to a lower-body injury and suffered a setback during his conditioning loan with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton before joining Pittsburgh for a full practice Monday. He is no longer listed on the Penguins, according to the NHL media site, indicating a potential move to the non-roster list. He will be eligible to return against Tampa Bay on April 2.

Penguins' Caleb Jones: Sent to AHL for conditioning
Jones (lower body) was assigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Monday for a conditioning loan.
Jones hasn't played since Oct. 23 against Florida due to injury. He has one assist, five shots on goal, 15 blocked shots and 10 hits in seven NHL outings this season. Once he is ready to return to the Pittsburgh lineup, the team will need to activate him from the injured reserve list.

Penguins' Caleb Jones: Return date in sight
Jones (lower body) is targeting Jan. 17 against Columbus to be cleared to play, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports.
Jones has been on the shelf since Oct. 25 due to his lower-body injury. The blueliner has started skating in a non-contact jersey and participating in practices. Even once given the all-clear, Jones is far from a lock to suit up on a nightly basis and would have to push Jack St. Ivany or Ryan Shea out of the lineup.

Penguins' Caleb Jones: Goes on injured reserve
Jones (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.
Jones will be out of action for approximately eight weeks. He has chipped in one assist, five shots on goal, 15 blocked shots and 10 hits across seven appearances this season. With Jones unavailable, Matt Dumba and Connor Clifton may compete for playing time on Pittsburgh's third pairing.

Penguins' Caleb Jones: Nabs assist in loss
Jones recorded an assist in Saturday's 6-1 loss to the Rangers.
Jones has played in all three of the Penguins' games so far, serving on the third pairing. He has a helper, two shots on net, three blocked shots, four hits and a plus-1 rating. The Penguins have just three left-shot blueliners, including Jones, so he may be able to find some job security over the right-handed shooting duo of Connor Clifton and Matt Dumba. Jones' best year was 2022-23 with the Blackhawks, when he had 16 points in 73 appearances.

Penguins' Caleb Jones: Signs in Pittsburgh
Jones signed a two-year, $1.8 million contract with the Penguins on Tuesday.
Jones struggled to get into the lineup for the Kings last year, appearing in just six regular-season games. He also logged 21 points in 44 regular-season outings with AHL Ontario. Jones will be in the mix for bottom-four minutes on the Penguins' blue line, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him spend some time with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton if his performance slips.

Kings' Caleb Jones: Returns to AHL
Jones was sent to AHL Ontario on Thursday.
Jones has no points, six shots, 10 hits and five blocks over six appearances with the Kings in 2024-25. He also has two goals and 20 points across 42 outings with Ontario this season.

Kings' Caleb Jones: Elevated from minors
Jones was promoted from AHL Ontario on Tuesday under emergency conditions.
Jones has logged just five NHL games this year, with his most recent outing coming back on Nov. 13 against the Avalanche. The decision to elevate Jones to the NHL roster could be an indication that there will be another absence on the Kings' blue line beyond just Joel Edmundson (upper body), though nothing has been officially announced by the team yet.

Kings' Caleb Jones: Hits waivers
Jones (upper body) was activated from injured reserve and placed on waivers Sunday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
Jones missed nine straight games after being injured in a 4-2 loss to Colorado on Nov. 13. He will probably get some playing time with AHL Ontario if he clears waivers. The 27-year-old defender hasn't earned a point in five NHL appearances this season while posting six shots on goal, four blocked shots and nine hits.

Kings' Caleb Jones: On injured reserve
Jones was placed on injured reserve by the Kings on Friday.
Jones sustained the injury during Wednesday's 4-2 loss to Colorado, so this move is presumably retroactive to that date. Even when he's ready to return, Jones might not draw into the lineup. He's often been a healthy scratch in 2024-25, appearing in just five games with the Kings, and the 27-year-old will likely continue to spend the majority of Los Angeles' action in the press box after he recovers.

Kings' Caleb Jones: Sustains upper-body injury
Jones suffered an upper-body injury and couldn't finish Wednesday's game versus the Avalanche, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
Jones played just 5:56 in the contest, his first action in two weeks. Considering he's been a healthy scratch more often than not, it may not be immediately clear when he's ready to play again. Jones has yet to record a point through five appearances this season, adding nine hits, four blocked shots and a minus-2 rating. Andreas Englund or Kyle Burroughs will likely rejoin the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Red Wings.

Kings' Caleb Jones: On Opening Night roster
Jones is one of eight Los Angeles defensemen to make the Opening Night roster ahead of the 2024-25 campaign.
Jones signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Kings in July. The 27-year-old will not be a lineup regular for Los Angeles, so he could see time with AHL Ontario throughout the season. The left-shot blueliner registered five assists in 25 regular-season contests with Colorado in 2023-24.

Kings' Caleb Jones: Inks two-way deal
Jones signed a one-year, two-way deal with Los Angeles on Friday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
Jones tallied five assists in 25 regular-season games with the Avalanche last season and appeared in just three of the team's 11 playoff contests. The 27-year-old defenseman also tallied six assists in 12 appearances with AHL Colorado. Jones will provide the Kings with some organizational depth on the blue line.
