The Blackhawks were one of the teams Jones was willing to sign an extension with and they've now been able to sway Columbus off a trade of either Kirby Dach and Alex DeBrincat and are sending a package to the Blue Jackets which reportedly includes some other young players and draft picks.
Jones made it known to the Blue Jackets he was not willing to sign an extension with the team, which kick-started the trade process.
Jones has one year remaining on his deal with a $5.4-million cap hit. Chicago is expected to sign Jones to a long-term contract extension, Friedman added. Huge move for the Blackhawks as they look to make a big run next season.
