TSN's Bob McKenzie reports that Ryan Jones has been claimed off waivers by the Edmonton Oilers. Jones, as was noted yesterday, has had trouble earning a consistent spot in the Nashville lineup since signing a two-year, one-way contract for $975,000 per year over the summer.
He was originally acquired by the Preds along with a 2nd-round draft pick (that became Charles-Olivier Roussel) in the Marek Zidlicky trade in 2008.
And no, I don't believe for a minute that we're looking at another Rich Peverley situation here.
