From the Chatham Daily News this morning, we have a feature on Ryan Jones, the college star who came to Nashville in the Marek Zidlicky trade, and most recently has filled out the Predators’ second line with David Legwand and Martin Erat:
He hasn’t forgotten his path to the NHL, and neither have his teammates.
“They get a kick out of the fact I was working at Taco Bell five years ago,” Jones said. “I definitely took the long way here.”
Jones has exceeded expectations so far, with a goal, two assists, and a +2 rating through 4 games played.
