What happened: Utah has signed Zac Jones to a two-year, two-way contract. The deal continues a steady run of roster moves by the club this offseason ahead of the 2026-27 campaign.

Why it matters: A two-way structure gives Utah flexibility to move Jones between the NHL roster and the minors, adding organizational depth without a guaranteed roster commitment. The signing extends an active stretch for the front office, which has added multiple forwards on two-year deals in the past week alone.

What to watch: Watch how Jones slots into Utah's depth chart when training camp opens ahead of the 2026-27 season, and whether the club has more signings coming as it rounds out the organization.
