In case you don’t remember, Jones was pulled in Game 4 after allowing two goals on seven shots: not great numbers.

Jones struggled during the regular season, going 36-19-5 with a career-worst 2.94 goals-against average and .896 save percentage. His stats have not fared better during the postseason, as he has a 1-2 record with a shocking 5.34 GAA and .838 save percentage.
On Tuesday, Jones was pulled after allowing two goals on seven shots. Were the goals primarily his fault? Not really, when Shea Theodore splits the defense and scores a pretty goal.
It;s fair to say DeBoer might not have much faith in Aaron Dell if he’s going back to Jones in Game 5. Hopefully, the netminder can refind his game, and the Sharks can refind their defense. If not, they’ll be packing their bags for summer vacation after Thursday.
