Pretty cool he makes his NHL debut, tonight, on his Bday!

Sounds like the Preds need to find a Josi to Jones Weber
Also, off topic but he said most nhl players do not stay here to train. Most football players do though, many even come here just to train.
I guess it's different types of training, but NFL players are extremely fast, extremely strong,
Just guessing here, but I assume there are more hockey specific trainers and training facilities in hockey hotbed areas like the Northeast, Upper Midwest, and Canada. You can find football camps and trainers all over in the Southeast. As much as some of us love hockey (& football), you have to accept that football rules here.
Also, a lot of guys want to spend their off-season with their family or where they grew up. Didn't Jones' mother move here with him? That was the plan when he was drafted last year. So maybe he's just settling in here in Nashville.
"I'm leasing a house, so I don't want to go back to Dallas and waste it," he said with a laugh about his hometown.

Here's his reasoning,
He's 18 or 19 right?? Maybe there's a girl here in Nashville. Don't most players have year round homes here even if they don't buy a house. I'll bet they don't have 9 month leases even if they're in a nice condo. I know he said it. Just doesn't sound reasonable to me. Again, he still a teenager, so nothing has to make sense.
Seth has taken one spot from Weber already. On the HF trade board.
