I love the seth jones on 2nd pair

I mean it doesn't mean he won't play the most minutes. Kane has played "2nd line" for his whole career yet leads all forwards in icetime always. It's just a more balanced lineup this way

Murphy will be better than jones in 23-24. I also thought you put him there to play with his brother.

I don't like the jones trade. We overpayed. But the people on this site acting like he's terrible or even just average is just not true. Still a very good dman. Murphy is really good and under rated but Jones is better. People that say otherwise are falling victim to recency bias. The hawks over payed so everyone wants to jump down their throats and act like jones is terrible too

I disagree.
1. Jones' war was 3rd percentile according to @jfreshhockey.

Seth Jones, acquired by CHI, is a big minute defenceman coming of a catastrophic season with Columbus. Prior to that his numbers were fine but not in line with his reputation as an elite two-way defenceman. #Blackhawks pic.twitter.com/vM7GQzgF8T

Jones is great at eating big minutes but isnt particularly good at anything. Murphy on the other hand is criminally underrated imo. Hes a better player than jones.
