Seth Jones Out 8-10 Weeks Following Surgery
5 years agoColumbus Blue Jackets defenseman Seth Jones will be sidelined for the next eight to 10 weeks after getting surgery on his injured ankle on Tuesday. The Texas native sustained the injury after colliding into the net in his team's 2-1 loss to the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday. The news comes as a huge blow to Jones' fantasy owners, as the Jackets No. 1 rearguard is now effectively done for the remainder of the regular season. The 25-year-old had posted 30 points (six goals, 24 assists), a plus-10 rating, nine power-play points and 126 shots on goal in 56 games this season. Look for fellow blue-liner Zach Werenski to be relied upon even more heavily over the next few months.
