Wild's Ben Jones: Returned to AHL
Jones was assigned to AHL Iowa on Tuesday.
Minnesota activated Zach Bogosian (lower body) from injured reserve in a corresponding move. Jones hasn't earned a point in 20 NHL appearances this season while contributing 17 shots on goal, seven blocked shots and 47 hits. He has two assists in three AHL outings during the 2025-26 campaign.

Wild's Ben Jones: Called up to NHL
Jones has been recalled from AHL Iowa by the Wild, the team announced Sunday.
Jones was sent back to AHL Iowa on Friday but is quickly returning to the NHL club ahead of Sunday's contest against the Avalanche. Injuries to the Wild's forwards throughout the season have allowed him to spend more time in the NHL lineup than in the AHL this season, but he is still seeking his first career NHL point. The 26-year-old likely won't draw into the lineup Sunday, barring some unexpected injury news for the Wild.

Wild's Ben Jones: Heads to minors
Jones was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Friday.
Jones successfully cleared waivers, but unlike others who end up on the wire, it wasn't immediately clear if he'd be demoted after going unclaimed. He did play in Thursday's 5-2 victory over Columbus, recording two shots over 7:02 of ice time. His demotion also brings the Wild down to 11 healthy forwards on their active roster -- 10 if Marcus Johansson (lower body) can't play Saturday versus Edmonton. However, Minnesota has time to promote forwards before its upcoming game against the Oilers.

Wild's Ben Jones: On waivers
Jones was put on waivers by Minnesota on Thursday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
Jones has no points, 15 shots and 47 hits in 19 appearances with the Wild this season. Normally, players put on waivers are reassigned to the minors if they go unclaimed, but that won't immediately happen in this case. Jones is still expected to remain with the team and play Thursday in Columbus, per Michael Russo of The Athletic. However, Jones clearing waivers gives the Wild the flexibility to send him to the minors later should they need to free a roster spot. Minnesota currently has Jonas Brodin (lower body), Vinnie Hinostroza (lower body), Daemon Hunt (undisclosed), Jake Middleton (upper body) and Mats Zuccarello (upper body) all on injured reserve.

Wild's Ben Jones: Cedes spot in lineup
Jones was a healthy scratch for Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Sabres.
Jones had played in the previous seven contests amid a rough stretch of injuries for the Wild. His exit coincided with the return of Vladimir Tarasenko (lower body). With Marco Rossi (lower body) also getting closer to a return, Jones' time on the NHL roster could be nearing an end. However, Jones will require waivers to return to AHL Iowa after appearing in 13 games. He has no points, a minus-5 rating, 11 shots on net and 28 hits this season.

Wild's Ben Jones: Called up from minors
Jones was recalled from AHL Iowa on Tuesday.
Jones' promotion to the NHL roster doesn't guarantee he will be in the lineup versus Dallas on Tuesday. If he does make it into the lineup, it figures to be in a fourth-line role at the expense of Danila Yurov or Liam Ohgren. In 26 regular-season outings with Minnesota last year, Jones failed to register a point while producing 24 shots, 51 hits and 10 PIM.

Wild's Ben Jones: Waived Monday
Jones was placed on waivers Monday with the purpose of sending him to AHL Iowa.
Jones notched 13 goals and 36 points in 49 games with Minnesota's top minor-league affiliate during the 2024-25 regular season. However, he didn't pick up a point in 26 NHL regular-season outings while contributing 51 hits.

Wild's Ben Jones: Sent to minors
Jones was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Tuesday, according to Michael Russo of The Athletic.

Wild's Ben Jones: Called up Wednesday
Jones was recalled from AHL Iowa on Wednesday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Jones was sent down by Minnesota in mid-January, but he'll join the Wild on their road trip that has four games remaining and runs through next Tuesday. The 25-year-old has made 26 appearances for the NHL club this year, and he's recorded no points, 51 hits, 11 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a minus-3 rating while averaging 8:23 of ice time.

Wild's Ben Jones: Returned to AHL affiliate
Jones was sent to AHL Iowa on Thursday, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.
Jones went through waivers Tuesday, but he remained on the roster and saw action on the fourth line versus Edmonton on Wednesday. The center was unable to garner a point in 26 NHL games this season, but he did manage 51 hits while averaging 8:23 of ice time. He could return to Minnesota ahead of Saturday's tilt against the Predators, as the Wild have only nine healthy forwards heading into the matchup.

Wild's Ben Jones: Remains on NHL roster
Jones is still on the Wild's NHL roster ahead of Wednesday's matchup with Edmonton, per the NHL media site.
Jones passed through waivers Tuesday but wasn't moved down as the team was still awaiting the status of Kirill Kaprizov (lower body) and Jakub Lauko (lower body). With neither player ready to suit up in Wednesday's tilt, Jones' potential demotion to the minors appears to be on hold. Look for him to suit up in a bottom-six role against the Oilers.

Wild's Ben Jones: Waived by Minnesota
Jones was waived by the Wild on Monday.
Jones saw consistent playing time for Minnesota in recent months, as he appeared in 25 of the team's last 27 games. However, he didn't make much of an impact, as he was held without a point while recording 49 hits, 11 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a minus-3 rating while averaging 8:29 of ice time. He'll likely head to AHL Iowa if he passes through waivers.

Wild's Ben Jones: Playing but not producing
Jones has suited up for 16 of 19 games since he was recalled from AHL Iowa on Nov. 17.
Jones has settled into a fourth-line role, primarily as a winger, though he played center between Devin Shore and Yakov Trenin in Monday's 4-3 win over the Blackhawks. The 25-year-old Jones is still searching for his first NHL point -- he has not gotten on the scoresheet over 16 games this year and 18 outings in his career. He has 14 shots on net, 32 hits, nine blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating in 2024-25.

Wild's Ben Jones: Promoted from AHL
Jones was brought up from AHL Iowa on Sunday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Jones could draw into the lineup Tuesday against St. Louis if Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body) isn't ready to go. Jones hasn't made an appearance in the NHL since the 2021-22 campaign with Vegas. The left-shot forward has been productive in the AHL this season with four goals and eight assists across 14 contests.

Flames' Ben Jones: Waived Sunday
Jones was waived by Calgary on Sunday, per CapFriendly.
Jones was held scoreless in two games with Vegas last season but tallied 41 points in 66 AHL appearances. A seventh-round pick in 2017, the 23-year-old will likely spend most of the year in the minors.

Flames' Ben Jones: Signs deal with Calgary
Jones signed a one-year, two-way deal worth $750,000 at the NHL level with the Flames on Saturday, PuckPedia reports.
The 23-year-old doesn't have much NHL service under his belt (no points in two games with Vegas last season), but he's flashed some offense at the AHL level with 25 goals and 41 points in 41 contests with Henderson in 2021-22. Add in Jones' 102-point explosion in his final season with OHL Niagara, and it's perfectly conceivable that he could carve out a regular role at some point with the Flames.
