Picking up vets on 1 year deals is exactly what rebuilding teams do, Vanek and Ott are nothing like the Nielsen signing.
Dealing Jurco and signing Vanek was a 2 third round pick swing rather than just keeping Jurco. Who is currently an ahler.
Pulky well, he's just not an NHL caliber player imo. But you know this already.
Pulkkinen could be doing exactly what Frk is doing - and probably better.
He's got 9 points in 3 AHL games.
It's criminal that some team isn't using him on their PP in the NHL.
But when you're 5'10 and not fast, and you've got all these 6'2 prospects and size queen coaches, that's life.
And I'm fine with signing a Vanek to trade him if he doesn't bump a 24 year old out of a job
If Vanek bumps some old guy out of a job, great.
