Also on the ice for 3 goals against, 1 being the empty netter. I dont know if he was on the ice for Pirri’s goal. Could be 4. But he was great when it came to offense. Subpar when it came to defense.
Move him to center. :DD

For those wanting Gallant, I guess you can assume he doesn't trust Schneider at this moment.
They had like 7-8 defenseman dressed as is normal in IIHF play. He was one of the extras. I don’t see anything alarming about his ice time.

Schneider had two good shifts in the 2nd period.

Gallant is some coach as he brought a team back from the dead ! He will have our defense all figured out before he even coaches a game for us LOL....Jones...trade block . Schneider...AHL . That's two taken care of and paves the way for Nils as one of our 3rd pairing Dmen .

Jones should play next year...its Smith who is the odd man out, imo. With 3 of our dmen on the small side id look for some balance in there with Trouba, Lindgren and Miller each on a pairing.

Maybe....depends on the timeline they have in mind which we both are unaware of at the moment . If they get in a rush they will find a decent left side Dman outside the organization with a year left on a contract or something that suits their timetable and retain Jones for a possible season in the A or have as trade bait or as the guy for 2022 .

Why would Jones play over Robertson?

Dont be surprised if Jones spends most of next w Pack.
Extenuating circumstances had him w varsity this season, but there is more to develop with him. All 4 new blue-chip D may spend time there, even Nils
