One year after the Minnesota North Stars made Don Biggs (Inducted with Biggs) the 156th overall choice of the NHL entry draft, Brad Jones was selected with the same pick by the Winnipeg Jets. After playing parts of six NHL seasons as a winger with the Jets, Los Angeles Kings and the Flyers, Jones came to Binghamton and spent the 1995-96 season playing for the Rangers. He scored 25 goals and 27 assists in 62 games that season. After spending a year playing in Germany he returned to the Binghamton area and scored 65 points in 55 games for the B.C. Icemen of the United Hockey League.

The 1997-98 season was also his introduction to coaching as he served as a player-assistant coach for the Icemen. He was promoted to the head coaching position following the 1997-98 campaign and spent four seasons as the head coach of the Icemen compiling a record of 156 wins, 111 losses and 29 overtime losses.
