Jones moves back into the press box as he struggles offensively. The Guelph, Ontario native has only nine goals and 16 points through 43 games. Seven of those goals were scored in October/November.
Jones, out the last couple weeks with a groin pull, has been activated by the team and should be in the lineup for the New Year’s Eve tilt with the reeling but still dangerous Ducks.
Jones gets back into the lineup for the first time since December 13th. The Guelph, Ontario native scored seven goals and 14 points through 31 games.
Forwards David Jones (groin) and Peter Mueller (head) also participated in a full practice and might soon be available.
Expect Jones to get back into the lineup within the next two weeks. The Guelph, Ontario native scored seven goals and 14 points in 31 games prior to getting hurt.
Sacco said Kobasew is close to returning to the lineup, and Jones a little further out.

SAN JOSE, CALIF. Winger David Jones has a groin injury and will miss his first game of the season tonight when the Avalanche completes a home-and-home stretch with the San Jose Sharks at HP Pavilion.
If you own Jones, make sure to bench him tonight. He has seven goals and 14 points through 31 games bouncing around from the first to fourth line.
David Jones moving to the fourth line with Kevin Porter and Cody McLeod
Jones was moved to the fourth line after a few unsuccessful games on a scoring line. The streaky scorer last scored 11 games ago, playing alongside Paul Stastny. With the playmaking center injured, Jones' fantasy hockey value takes a hit.
Matt Duchene will play left wing on the Paul Stastny-centered line, but with David Jones on the opposite wing.
Jones moves back to the top line, where he holds the most fantasy hockey value. He scored seven goals through 24 games getting shuffled around the lineup.
One of their other top three lines saw TJ Galiardi at center, between Cody McLeod and David Jones.
Jones's seven goals rank second on the team although he has not scored for four games. He plays best on the wing of Paul Stastny so don't expect too much from him.
Goalie Semyon Varlamov and four others did not participate in today's Avalanche practice. Forwards Milan Hejduk, David Jones and Peter Mueller and defenseman Kyle Quincey also didn't skate with the team today.
Likely just maintenance days. Should there be any injuries, we will fill you in.
