Confirmed Trade: [ARZ/MIN] Teemu Pulkkinen for future considerations.

[TOGuy14]

Can't wait for Shane Doan's hot take after this

 

[AKL]

I can't wait to use these future considerations. They're definitely more help than Pulkkinen is.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Can't wait for Shane Doan's hot take after this

Gonna miss playing with those future considerations.

 

[Wingsfan 4 life]

Not familiar with Tuscon's lineup, but looking at the AHL standings, they could definitely use him for a playoff push. Pulks has been an almost PPG on the Griffens. Not sure what their plans would be after this year.

 

[PG Canuck]

Good buy low option for the Yotes.

 

[CodeE]

Never a good sign for a player's value when they get claimed on waivers and then moved for future considerations a few months later.

 

[Igor Shestyorkin]

Bigger than the Hanzal deal.

 

[Martinez]

I figured he'd be in Europe by now

 

[llamateizer]

It was probably part of the Hanzal deal, but they had to wait for Waiver clearance

 

[agent082]

A good move by Arizona. I know there is a very very small chance Pulkkinen finds his scoring in NHL too but I think there is a chance. I'm sure he realizes this is his last chance and will give his all. Arizona can give him a look. And if not good enough in NHL he will be a upgrade if Roadrunners makes the playoffs.

 

[Esko6]

Pulkkinen could be a top player in a league with a bit more time, just go to KHL already.

 

[ijuka]

Did he not just clear waivers? On a side note, really want the kid to succeed

Trading for a guy for free after he clears waivers is far superior to just claiming him off the waivers.

 

[Bieber fever]

Best GM in the game

 

[GigaChad]

This guy is the most annoying player I've ever followed.
Shoots like no one's business and destroys the AHL but once in the NHL struggles like no tomorrow.
He should skate all summer 24/7 and come back faster and stronger.

 

[izzy]

good for someone??

If there was a definition for one dimensional winger in the dictionary, it would be Pulkkinen.

 

[Esq]

Why didn't Arizona just claim him before when he was on waivers?

 

[Malkinstheman]

Why didn't Arizona just claim him before when he was on waivers?

Because then they would have to put him on waivers themselves to send him to their farm team. Now that he has passed waivers they can send him there directly.

 

[rt]

Probably the Wild wanted to move him but AZ only agreed to take him if he first passed waivers because they didn't actually want him.

 

[TaLoN]

Completely fleeced.

Arizona overpaid HUGE.

 

[57special]

Hope TP gets a shot in ARI. Just no room for him on the Wild except possibly on the 4th line, and he isn't cut out for that.

 

[ES]

I would assume futures would include something on extension.

 

[MessierII]

Chayka for GM of the year?

 

[Snarky Coyote]

Ok Coyotes have now assembled the lineup that can win the cup for 10 consecutive years, might as well just stop playing hockey if you are another team. It just isn't fair.












Well at least they haven't sent playoff invoices out like they did last year on February 26th.

 

[tfong]

If Yak and Pulk combined all their abilties together, it would make for a fairly decent player.
