Hockey Betting Lines

08/25/2010 - Tampa, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Tampa Bay Lightning have signed veteran defenseman Randy Jones to a one-year contract.

Jones tallied five goals and 16 assists in 48 games for Los Angeles last season, his first and only with the club.

He was originally signed as a free agent by Philadelphia in 2003 after his collegiate career at Clarkson University.

The 29-year-old broke into the NHL with the Flyers during the 2003-04 campaign and spent the first five seasons of his career with them.

Jones has compiled 18 goals and 72 assists in 265 regular season games and added three helpers in 26 postseason games.

"Randy is a skilled defenseman, capable of playing in all situations on both the right and left side," said general manager Steve Yzerman. "His addition gives us some needed depth on the blue line."
