You heard wrong.Since NYR are done with their rebuild. Fast rebuild ever I heard. Their 1st should be adequate for Pulju
Just to be clear, I did not say only a cond 7th.
I said that is towards a deal.
But you get no value from NYR, or presumably anyone else, until Poolparty produces FIRST, upfront.
Whether he returns to EDM and produces there and you may still elect to move him [or not]
OR
he is dealt elsewhere now,
no club should give Oil anything for the guy, and assume any risk whats0ever until the player demonstrates likelihood of reward being worth the risk.
That means JP has to return and play on the cheap for an NHL club on a show me deal.
NY will not take the risk of him busting off your hands for anything of significant value until produces.
Hence most likely scenario is conditional future add for his actual value, anything else, superfluous.
Yak was 23 when traded , Pulju is only 21 and is far from being considered a bust.For me it's quite simple.
What did the Oilers get for Yakupov?
Expect similar return for Pulju.
Why all the back and forth?
Yak was 23 when traded , Pulju is only 21 and is far from being considered a bust.
Oilers can hang onto him for another couple yrs and still get what they got for Yak
Actually he is quite close to bust.Yak was 23 when traded , Pulju is only 21 and is far from being considered a bust.

He said he is committed to his team. That could easily mean that he is committed to his team until he gets a deal signed though.Didn't Pulju say that he wants to finish the season in Finland?
If that is the case, I assume the few teams interested have been put off by this.
Unless a team is fine in acquiring with the plan to have him ply for them next season.
This thread should be locked until next season comes around.
No amount of speculation will make him leave Kärpät for the season and I really doubt a team will be willing to trade for him until next season. Dead asset for a season doesn't sound good to any possible team acquiring him.

I think the oilers scouting department is actually pretty good lately.Except Yak was actually playing NHL minutes and was a known quantity.
Pulju is a blackhole atm. Potential is a regressive commodity the further we get from his draft date and meaningful competition. His attitude and commitment to working for his career in the NHL are only amplifying the negative value.
Dont hold your breath expecting a substantial return. Your scouting dept is inept and that has merit in the eyes of rival GM's and their risk assessment of any potential trades for your "maybes".
Well you would probably know consider Andersson is a massive bust.Far from considered a bust? Hes about as close to a bust as you can possibly get
Nobody is a bust at 21. That's f***in ridiculous. Don't really care what the hell HF thinks. This place is wrong 99 times out of 100 on pretty much everything but the majority seem to think they have everything figured out.Far from considered a bust?

Disappointment for where he was drafted for sure. Still a team or 2 away from being a bust.Im the biggest Andersson hater here...So you dont have to do any convincing there bud. Not that I said anything about Lias anyways
A 4th overall pick with the hype and pre-draft success he had? Sure dont labe him a bust...is huge disappointment a better term?
How so?Rangers traded Hayes for a bust as well.
Our busts and bad drafting?I guess Rangers want another bust to add to their collection of busts and bad drafting.
