Seth Jones’s heavy minutes and first-unit power-play deployment give him repeated chances to put two pucks on net.
37 SOG · 15 GP · 25.0 MIN — Jones has generated 37 shots in 15 games, with a projected workload of approximately 25.0 minutes. Those minutes create multiple opportunities to join sustained attacks, so the shooting requirement need not be met on one unusually productive shift.
PAIR 2 · PP1 · 9.4% SHOT SHARE — Jones is paired with Niko Mikkola and receives first-unit power-play deployment, giving him access to possessions at the point. His 9.4% share in the historical 11-game snapshot shows that his involvement has included shooting rather than only puck distribution.
Chicago can block Jones’s point attempts while Florida’s forwards retain the finishing opportunities on the power play. A protected Florida lead can turn offensive possessions into safe puck management rather than additional shots from the blue line.
Settlement Rule: CASHES SETH JONES OVER 1.5 SHOTS ON GOAL WITH AT LEAST 2 OFFICIAL SHOTS. NO PUSH IS POSSIBLE.

Seth Jones’s heavy minutes and first-unit power-play deployment give him repeated chances to put two pucks on net.
Counter-Case: Chicago can block Jones’s point attempts while Florida’s forwards retain the finishing opportunities on the power play. A protected Florida lead can turn offensive possessions into safe puck management rather than additional shots from the blue line.
Jones combines a large ice-time workload with first-unit power-play access, creating multiple routes to two shots on goal.
Counter-Case: Jones could use his offensive touches primarily to feed the flank shooters. Ottawa could also block his point attempts before they reach the goalie, leaving a busy offensive night short of the required shots on net.
Jones's substantial minutes and first-unit power-play role give him several routes to the two shots required.
Counter-Case: Seattle can block Jones's point releases before they reach the goaltender. Florida's forwards can also absorb the power-play attempts, leaving Jones with heavy minutes but only one official shot.
Jones' heavy workload and first-unit power-play position give him several routes to the two shots required.
Counter-Case: Vancouver can close shooting lanes and turn Jones' point attempts into blocks rather than shots on goal. If Florida's power play moves the puck directly to its forwards, he can direct the attack without putting two attempts on target.
