Rotowire
Jones compiled a power-play assist, four blocked shots and five shots on goal in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Wild.
Jones has helpers in back-to-back games as a welcomed trend for his fantasy managers. The 28-year-old dealt with a thumb injury earlier in the campaign and he's been wildly inconsistent overall. Of course, the Blackhawks have lost six straight games and there hasn't been a great deal of support for the top-pairing blueliner.

Blackhawks' Seth Jones: Earns two assists
Rotowire
Jones registered two power-play assists against Seattle on Sunday.
Jones has three assists to start the year but is still looking to open his goal account. The blueliner is coming off a fantastic year in which he recorded the second 50-plus campaign of his career, including 19 power-play helpers. While the Texas native is unlikely to score a lot of goals, he should continue to compile assists, especially given his role with the No. 1 power-play unit.
Jones logged a shorthanded assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.
Jones helped out on the second of Sam Lafferty's goals in the contest. The helper was Jones' first point in three games this season, though he's remained a physical presence on the top pairing. The 28-year-old blueliner has a plus-1 rating, three shots on goal, eight blocked shots and nine hits so far this year. That plus-minus is likely to erode over time, but he can still generate offense and play a heavy game.

Rotowire
Jones had two assists -- one on the power play -- to go with three shots and four blocked shots in Thursday's 5-4 shootout win over the Sharks.
