Went Pulkkinen as well

I really want him to get enough opportunity this season because I feel like he could be a guy who gets passed in the not so distant future by players like Mantha, Svechnikov, etc

I'd hate for management to give up on him before they know what they have in terms of an NHLer, though I think they want to see too after the season he just had in the AHL.

Jurco - Sheahan - Helm is what I would run given what is left.

Pulks can work his way up the lineup, but I want to see him impress when he is called in and show some defensive responsibility.

he can't finish but on that line he would be doing the grinders work instead of jurco who can focus on the skill stuff.

He should be centering a shut down line. I wish there were as well developed advanced stats for hockey as there are for baseball, but I would bet dollars or donuts that when he is in a shutdown role he is saving more goals than he is creating in as a winger on a scoring line.

i don't mind him being centering shutdown line either, with miller and glendening on his wings.
