and live on Freeview channel 276
The 23-year-old defenceman was loaned out to Telford Tigers when the Sheffield club's hopes of playing in a covid-protected EIHL tournament were recently put in the deep freeze.
Jones flew in from Canada to join the Midlands side and was credited with a goal in Sunday's 5-2 road win at Romford.

On Saturday, Tigers beat the same Raiders side 3-2 at home.
Sheffield's Cole Shudra didn't take long to announce his arrival at Telford either, he scored the first goal in the 3-2 win over Raiders on Saturday night.
Another ex Steelers' skater Kieran Brown was also on target and former Arena goaltender Brad Day turned away 29 shots.
Telford and Swindon Wildcats are locked on four points to share the tournament table lead with Sheffield Steeldogs, who did not play last weekend so have two games in hand on their rivals.
