PHILADELPHIA — Martin Jones flew out to the East Coast for the Sharks four-game road trip Monday. But it’s unclear whether he’ll actually see action in the team’s games against the Philadelphia Flyers, Florida Panthers, Tampa Bay Lightning and Washington Capitals.
“If I had to guess, yes,” Sharks head coach Pete DeBoer said when asked if Jones will return to the blue paint during his team’s road trip. “But that can change day to day.”
Jones appeared to suffer a lower-body injury during his shutout of the Winnipeg Jets Saturday night. As a result, Aaron Dell will open the road trip in goal at the Wells Fargo Center Tuesday, squaring off against Flyers bench boss Dave Hakstol, his head coach in college at the University of North Dakota.
