Jones scored a goal on four shots, added an assist, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Maple Leafs in Game 7.
Jones opened the scoring at 3:15 of the second period, and he added a helper on a Jonah Gadjovich tally later in the frame. This performance ended a four-game slump for Jones. The 30-year-old defenseman has been steady this postseason with three goals, three assists, 17 shots on net, 28 hits, 15 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over 12 outings. He's playing massive defensive minutes, though he still has some scoring upside as a supporting scorer.

Panthers' Seth Jones: Scores game-winner Monday
Rotowire
Jones scored a goal in Monday's 4-2 win over the Lightning in Game 4.
Jones' tally came 11 seconds after Aaron Ekblad tied the game, allowing the Panthers to quickly flip this game in their favor. The 30-year-old Jones hasn't been a huge factor on offense yet in the playoffs. He has two points, five shots on net, nine hits, seven blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over four postseason contests. He remains in a top-four role and could see extra usage if Ekblad receives a suspension for elbowing Brandon Hagel in Monday's game, a play that went unpenalized on the ice.

Rotowire
Jones notched a power-play assist, two shots on goal and five hits in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Maple Leafs.
Jones has a goal and two power-play assists during his three-game point streak. The 30-year-old defenseman continues to look comfortable in a workhorse role on a contender after doing just okay with similar usage in Chicago earlier in the season. He's up to six points in 14 outings with the Panthers and a total of 33 points, 113 shots on net, 90 hits, 98 blocked shots and a minus-23 rating over 56 appearances this season.

Panthers' Seth Jones: Lights lamp Sunday
Rotowire
Jones tallied a goal in Sunday's 4-2 loss to Montreal.
Jones tied the game at 2-2 just under five minutes after Juraj Slafkovsky gave Montreal a 2-1 lead. Jones' tally Sunday brings his season totals up to nine goals, 31 points, 96 blocked shots and 108 shots on net in 54 games between Florida and Chicago this season. The 30-year-old blueliner has two goals in his last four contests but has struggled offensively across March as a whole. However, he holds solid value in fantasy for the time being while averaging 27:10 of ice time in his last nine games. Additionally, Jones tied his point total from a season ago and should challenge for the 37-point mark that he finished the 2022-23 campaign with by the end of the 2024-25 regular season.

Panthers' Seth Jones: Nets goal Saturday
Rotowire
Jones tallied a goal, fired two shots on net and dished out two hits in Saturday's 6-3 loss to Washington.
After the Capitals took an early 2-1 lead, Jones responded with his first goal for the Panthers less than two minutes later. The 30-year-old blueliner is up to eight goals, 30 points and 102 shots on net in 51 appearances this season. Since Aaron Ekblad's 20-game suspension began, Jones has been averaging 26:42 TOI, which is roughly four and a half minutes more than he saw in his first three contests with the team. He has also been quarterbacking Florida's top power-play unit and has two power-play assists in his past six games. Jones' prominent usage should help him provide plenty of value for the fantasy playoffs.

Panthers' Seth Jones: Secures power-play helper
Rotowire
Jones logged a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 1-0 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.
Jones has earned two assists over eight contests as a Panther. He's immediately returned to his workhorse ways from his time as a Blackhawk, as the Panthers are without Aaron Ekblad (suspension) until the third game of the postseason, leaving Jones to pick up the slack. For the season, the 30-year-old defenseman has 29 points (17 on the power play), 99 shots on net, 76 hits, 95 blocked shots and a minus-22 rating over 50 appearances.
Panthers' Seth Jones: All-around showing in Florida debut
Rotowire
Jones fired three shots on goal, blocked two shots and provided a hit during his Florida debut in Monday's 2-1 win against Tampa Bay.
While Jones was held off the scoresheet in his first game with the Panthers, he posted a solid performance on both sides of the ice. He saw 22:56 TOI in a top-four pairing with Niko Mikkola. The 30-year-old Jones has 27 points, 84 shots on net and 85 blocks in 43 games this season. The newly-acquired blueliner from Chicago is capable of quarterbacking a power-play unit and has 15 points with the man advantage this season. However, Florida elected to stick with veteran Aaron Ekblad as their top power-play option on the blueline in Jones' debut. Until Ekblad shows signs of struggling on the power play, we may see Jones as a secondary option with a man advantage. Regardless, Jones should see an uptick in fantasy value now that he's playing alongside the reigning champs.

Panthers' Seth Jones: Florida-bound in trade
Rotowire
Jones and a 2026 fourth-round pick were traded to the Panthers from the Blackhawks on Saturday in exchange for Spencer Knight and a conditional 2026 first-round pick.
Per PuckPedia, the Blackhawks will use up their last salary retention spot for the season by retaining $2.5 million of Jones' $9.5 million cap hit. He is under contract for five more years after this one, so this is far more than just a rental for the Panthers. The good news is the Panthers will get a minutes-munching blueliner who can quarterback a power play. Jones should also benefit significantly from going to a Stanley Cup contender after playing for one of the worst teams in the league, so consider his fantasy stock on the rise. Jones is likely to be available to play Monday versus the Lightning.
Blackhawks' Seth Jones: Nets lone goal on power play
Rotowire
Jones scored a power-play goal on two shots, added five hits and blocked four shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Utah.
Jones opened the scoring at 13:34 of the first period, but the Blackhawks' offense couldn't get the better of Karel Vejmelka again. The 30-year-old Jones has three points over seven games in February, and all of that offense has come on the power play. The defenseman is open to being traded, but he carries a $9.5 million cap hit for five years after this one, which is likely to be a big obstacle to getting any deal done. Don't expect a deal to happen -- Jones is likely to continue playing on the Blackhawks' top pairing and first power-play unit. He's at 27 points (15 on the power play), 78 shots on net, 83 blocked shots, 61 hits and a minus-16 rating through 41 appearances this season.

Blackhawks' Seth Jones: One of each in Friday's win
Rotowire
Jones scored a goal on three shots, added an assist, doled out two hits and blocked four shots in Friday's 6-2 win over the Predators.
Jones' pair of points came on the power play -- he and Connor Bedard assisted on each other's tallies. With two goals and four helpers over six outings since he missed a game due to an illness, Jones is in a groove. The 30-year-old defenseman is up to six goals, 26 points, 72 shots on net, 75 blocked shots, 54 hits and a minus-12 rating through 37 appearances. He's earned 14 of his points with the man advantage.
Jones had two assists Tuesday in a 4-1 win over the Lightning.
Jones has nine points (two goals, seven assists) during a six-game personal point streak dating to Jan. 13. He missed one game with an illness during that stretch. Jones has really picked up his game this season and has 23 points (12 with the man advantage), including 18 assists, in 33 games. Jones offers sneaky fantasy value, as long as you can accommodate his plus-minus risk (minus-9).

Blackhawks' Seth Jones: Ready to rock
Rotowire
Jones (illness) will be in the lineup for Sunday's matchup against the Wild, per Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio.
Jones should return to the top pairing and first power-play unit after missing Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to Tampa Bay. He has generated four goals, 20 points, 57 shots on net, 56 blocked shots and 40 hits across 31 outings this season. Jones will replace T.J. Brodie in Sunday's lineup.
