Proposal: Milano for Puljujarvi

[NHL]

Unfortunately Puljujarvi is now tagged a bust...
Edmonton could benefit a good prospect and Columbus can hope for a player upgrade.
Maybe Columbus could add a late round pick for the age difference...I don't know

Does Columbus take the risk and Edmonton try again on another young talented prospect, even if a bit older?

How is 22 year old Sonny Milano a good prospect, but Pulujarvi "tagged a bust". This is a ridiculous offer. No risk for Columbus, all risk by Edmonton.

Trust me when i say that Milano will be a “bonus” for any trade CBJ is trying to make.

IE, Duchene - 1st, Wennberg + Milano.

That being said, CBJ does this in a heartbeat I’d think. Milano is a lot like Duclair IMO and you see how that’s working out for Duke this year...

Every single Pulju proposal involves a struggling player who is older and clearly has less potential.

His value is no lower then what Dylan Strome’s was this year. Why should the Oilers trade him for less?

Not a chance

I disagree, Strome being a centre gives him more value

Dylan Strome has played in 50 less games yet has 14 more points over the course of his career. I'd say that Puljujarvi has lesser value than Strome.

Strome had 7 goals and 16 points in 48 games before being traded.

What about Matt Benning for Milano?

 

[ChaoticOrange]

There is no chance Edmonton considers this. All the ‘how about my 23/24 year old that’s accomplished even less than Puljujarvi’ offers need to stop.

 

[Dooble08]

Correct 48 games. Not 139. Plus as previously mentioned, centers have better value than wingers.

20 year old bust
vs
22 year old young talented prospect

Homer statement of the day!

I wouldnt call Pulju a bust at all but many believe it just doesnt work in EDM. Now what does EDM could expect to receive IF Pulju was to leave? Draft picks? Maybe. Another young prospect? I tend to go with this scenario

 

[TFHockey]

What a terrible trade. I won't insult anyone by making a similar counter offer.

He had 16 points in his previous 41 games before being traded. He's exploded since being traded making that trade look very very bad for ARI.

Personally, I think that if Pulujarvi goes, it's Pulujarvi+ for an upgrade, and it won't happen right now, but closer to the draft. Maybe something like Pulujarvi, Benning w/ retention (so he doesn't have negative value) and a 2nd round pick for a good middle six winger with term.

No he’s clearly an NHL player since he played a single game

Sonny Milano for Joe Gambardella

 

[snipes]

Strome set the market.

Pass.

You're quoting a post on his value before being traded and yet included the points he has from Chicago.

Brilliant.

Your lack of insulting counter offer is noted as is your disgust for the OP.

Did someone say Benning for Milano?
Wasn't Benning on waivers the other day?
That is just silly.

Sure. But in the end Dylan Strome still has more value pre trade than Puljujarvi does currently. Look at ppg numbers. Strome .35 Puljujarvi .27. Plus Stome is a center while Puljujarvi is a winger. Centers have more value than wingers.

Arguing who has more value is irrelevant. The point is we're not talking about a difference between Schmaltz and AHL players who are the same age as Schmaltz.

Well the point is "what is the trade value of Puljujarvi." The OP is a bad trade for Edmonton. Someone mentioned that Puljujarvi has the same value as Dylan Strome when he was traded. I was putting forth my opinion as to why that isn't the case. Plus we are on a thread board attempting to figure out the value of NHL players and make fair market (not usually) hypothetical trades.
