Jones has split time between Minnesota and Iowa (AHL) this season. He has been productive at the AHL level, scoring 14 points (5G / 9A) in 20 games but hasn't seen that success translate to the NHL, scoring zero points through 26 games this season.
Kurtis MacDermid will draw back into New Jersey's lineup on Wednesday against the Philadelphia Flyers, resulting in Halonen being a healthy scratch. Halonen is averaging 13:54 time-on-ice and has zero points through two games with the Devils this season.
Brian Halonen will be a healthy scratch on Wednesday against the Philadelphia Flyers, allowing MacDermid to re-enter the lineup. The 30-year-old MacDermid is averaging 5:21 time-on-ice, recording zero points, 21 penalty minutes, and 31 hits in 19 games this season.

Klingberg hasn't played since undergoing hip surgery over a year ago after a brief 14-game stint with the Toronto Maple Leafs, where he scored five points (0G / 5A). The 32-year-old Klingberg isn't far removed from being one of the league's elite powerplay quarterbacks. He scored a career-high 67 points (8G / 59A) in 82 games with the Dallas Stars in the 2017-18 season. However, his production has dipped significantly in recent years, tallying only 85 points (16G / 69A) and a -60 plus/minus in his 155 most recent games. Given Evan Bouchard's dominance on Edmonton's top powerplay unit, it's unlikely that Klingberg will find himself in that position. Yet, he could still see an uptick in production considering the star power of his surrounding cast.
