I still think Jones is the one to trade...

The thing is, trading Jones doesn't impact Samorukov vs. Broberg. One of them still needs to go, because they're not likely to be able to be both broken in in the next year and a half, and if they aren't their value starts to sag.
Someone else has to go so one of those guys at some point so one of them can make the team too. Jones could definitely be on the chopping block - although his value is already flagging from under use this year. Hopefully he plays more in the second half and regains his mojo. If we trade him, we want him to be performing his best before he goes to drive the best return.
I would not trade Jones this year, because I think he's currently one of the three best left-shot defencemen - behind Nurse, about even with Lagesson, and ahead of Russell. Koekkoek is out, likely for the year, so we don't have much there and injuries happen on defence. If you trade Jones, and someone gets hurt, you have Theodor Lennstrom or you're playing a right shot on the off-side.
This summer? Fair game - especially if you think Broberg is coming in this year and you can convert Jones in to something more valuable. Worth noting, I wouldn't flush him for a draft pick just to clear a spot for Broberg though...

I think his (Jones) value is has high as it will be with the Oil, I’m not convinced he’ll be a top 4 option long term nor (now I’m surprising myself in saying this) do I think he’s a better option than Kowboy at this time (and the coaching staff seemingly agrees with that).
For me, our LHD chart;
Nurse (obvy)
Willy
Kowboy
Jones
Lennstrom
If you can flip Jones for a middle 6 LW, or package him for a top 6 LW, it’s a no brainer. No one is taking Kowboy for that return without a near unpalatable sweetener. You’re organizationally inept if you deal Bear or Bouchard for anything short of a ransom. Jones is the one that likely has decent value around the league that you can bear to move while addressing a need.
