History
In 2003-04 Ryan Jones helped lead the Chatham Maroons to the Western Jr. B Championship, but they did not make it to the Sutherland Cup (the championship for OHA Junior B’s three leagues). Jones ended up MVP for the Western Jr. B league and was named a Veteran All-Star for right wing. Awards aside, he had a very good year, leading the league in scoring with 69 points (39 goals, 30 assists) in 46 games, and he was also second in playoff scoring with 26 points in 17 games (17 goals, 9 assists).
2004-05: Began play at Miami University.
2007-08: After a stellar year in which he was a Hobey Baker finalist, Jones led his Miami of Ohio team to the Northeast Regional finals where they lost to eventual national champs, Boston College. Jones then signed a contract with the Wild and played for Houston in their playoff run.
Talent Analysis
Jones has goal-scoring talent and a strong competitive drive. He positions himself well in the offensive zone in order to generate scoring chances and can finish with his good shot. A bit of a late bloomer.
Not the quickest guy, he is big, strong and can score garbage goals. He'll need to prove he can continue to score goals in traffic in front of the net against the next level of defenders to make his way to the NHL.
