2014-15 By The Numbers: #19 David Jones

David Jones came to the Calgary Flames two seasons ago, in what was termed by many to be a "garbage for garbage" between Calgary and the Colorado Avalanche.

The Avalanche sent the rather sizable contracts of Jones and Shane O'Brien to Calgary, in exchange for Alex Tanguay and Cory Sarich, two veterans who had given indications that they had little desire to be part of a protracted rebuild. All four men got fresh starts, but the deal initially seemed rather iffy for Calgary, as O'Brien was sent to the AHL (and then bought out) and Jones fought through injuries for most of last season.
