Almost had 2 hat tricks?? Lol
He's so good, he skips the first hat trick and almost gets the second.

He's improving his positioning with more experience. He scored a nice goal last night by settling into a nice quiet spot and ripping a wrister. He almost had another goal by finding the sweet spot in the slot on a nifty play, but was robbed by Talbot.Good game last night but I still think he lacks the offensive instincts to be a top scorer. His goals are almost always individual efforts where he uses his reach and insanely good hands to beat someone one on one (one on two, etc). He seems to lack the ability to find the quiet spots where he can pick up easy points, and only makes highlight reel plays. Since hardly anyone can make those highlight reel plays game after game it gives the appearance of inconsistency, but I think it’s just that his hockey sense doesn’t match his skill in the offensive end of the ice.
Almost had 2 hat tricks = actually had 0 hat tricks?
Can I get a full line of 4th liners like that please?Once every dozen games or so Armia is the most dominant player on the ice from either team. The other 11 he's an average 3rd liner. Meh.
i liked this post until i read the plays some where else part had to unlike hes one of my fav jets to watch and id like to lock him up for another 4 at leastI'd like to see him play more TOP6 minutes. So far he's only got 3-4 line minutes really.
He doesnt really have off games. He always does something useful. Kinda hoping he gets to play somewhere else, where he gets to play the minutes he deserves.
I know. I like the Jets and he probably likes it too, I'd just like to see him get to play more and with more skilled linemates like he deserves. After all, championships are won with guys like him (depth) who are valuable even if they dont always score. Not sure if his future will end in Winnipeg but I hope he gets to use all of his tools.i liked this post until i read the plays some where else part had to unlike hes one of my fav jets to watch and id like to lock him up for another 4 at least
I played in the same junior team, but different age group, as Jesse Puljujärvi. So I almost made the NHLAlmost had 2 hat tricks?? Lol
He never was cocky though as someone suggested.

He's come a long way as a player from offensive skilled guy with a great shot to an all round two way player. He never was cocky though as someone suggested.
2 sick goals last night, 5 shots, 2 takeways, almost had 2 hat tricks. In 10 minutes. (VIDEO BELOW). It's a shame the Jets have so many RW's and forwards are stacked and they go top-6/bottom-6.
He's coming along nicely. A sniper with size who's excellent defensively with few weaknesses. Plays on the PP and PK (where he's a serious threat to score). He could play in my top 6 any day. Really like his overall game and it's so complementary too so he could easily play with top-line talent like Matthews, Toews, Crosby (look at their wingers).
You've got to think he's (been) on the radar of more than a few GM's around the league. He's RFA after this season and WIN would be wise to lock him up, but I bet they get some interesting inquiries for him too.
I don't think that makes him coxky though, and that celly was kinda a backslash to the Swede Max Friberg doing the same in a game before.He did ride with his stick in front of Sweden's bench. that was quite cocky move.
Kudos to him for reinventing himself as a defensive specialist to hang onto a NHL roster spot. He was drafted as a one-dimensional sniper who was pretty cocky and showed no signs of being interested in being a role player. He's come pretty far and now he's still occasionally showing flashes of those sweet offensive skills, but for some reason he can't put it together very consistently. As someone said above, he always leaves you wanting for more.
