The Kings added depth to their goaltending corps Tuesday when they agreed to terms with Martin Jones on a two-year deal. Jones had a 27-25-4 record with a 2.53 goals-against average and a .919 save percentage plus five shutouts in 56 games last season with the Manchester (N.H.) Monarchs of the American Hockey League. He was fourth in the AHL in victories, tied for sixth in shutouts and second in saves. He has been with the Monarchs for the last three seasons. He was originally signed by the Kings as a free agent in 2008.
