News Article: Ottawa Senators should kick tires on Jesse Puljujarvi

[Tuna99]

Ott: RNH, Puljarvii
Edm: Tierney, Abramov, Gustavson, 2nd 2020

If he's waiver eligible, we have first dibs. Why trade anything for him?

Well, at least you changed your tune a little bit. The kid has potential. I've watched him a bit living here in the west, and he can move as well as carry the puck. He is good at possession and good on forecheck. I say he would be worth a shot either through waivers or via late round picks.

 

[Crosside]

The ask was a 2/3 liner for Puju. Tierney fits that bill perfectly. Would you trade him Puju straight up or would you include a pick as well.

[Artanis]

He is a better player and prospect than Logam Brown.

Well that's certainly an interesting take for sure.

 

[Micklebot]

Well that's certainly an interesting take for sure.

If Edm had left him in the AHL instead of rushing him into the lineup he would likely be seen much more favourably.

I prefer Brown but Puljujarvi has had his reputation damaged by being rushed imo.

they should be adding not us, tierney has hit 40+ in his last 2 seasons, people can say what they want but 0.5 ppg is about a 2nd liners production and paying that for an unknown that took a step back is too much

that being said poolparty is still young and still has the time and capability to hit that potential

i would do boedker retained (50%) for poolparty

as long as poolparty is willing to sign for less than 1.5 million we would be saving money and edmonton picks up more of a sure thing in boedker as a third liner.

I think Edmonton have receive better offer than Boedker

 

[TheNewEra]

I think Edmonton have receive better offer than Boedker

oh i wouldnt be surprised, but thats about the most i would be comfortable giving up for him if we are talking players on the sens right now

especially since tierney is a center and if he produces like that again im sure we will either get a high draft pick offer or more of a sure thing at the deadline if we go that route

picks wise i would do the sharks second next year at most and even that i am iffy on

Yeah the second sharks of next year or the second of Dallas this year + Paul but I think Edmonton have better offer and Pulju he is a player I think turn very good with another team

 

[BondraTime]

Giving Pulj away for nothing is a better option than Boedker.

 

[Icelevel]

If we could get Puljujarvi for a 3rd, I imagine that trade would have already been completed.

I thought it was reported they may be looking for a third line player. Guess they didn’t want smith so we took anisimov instead?
Yeah that’s all speculation

Yes sorry that's what I meant. Edmonton should be adding a third.

 

[danielpalfredsson]

Tierney would be fine to give up of the Sens staff have a positive evaluation of Puljujarvi.

I would be surprised if we keep Tierney long term. After this season, he has 1 RFA year left and then is a UFA where he will get 3.5-4.5 million over multiple seasons.

Although, it probably makes more sense to deal a 2nd now, keep Tierney for 19-20, and then try to recoup that 2nd by trading Tierney's RFA rights at the draft.

I think this thread is a pretty good example of HF hyperbole about a prospect. People love to come in and call a player a bust, but the fact of the matter is most of the players form his draft class either just broke into the NHL or arent even there yet. Why are they held to a different standard than Puljujarvi? This stuff that he is worthless or only worth throw away players or late picks is ridiculous he is only 21 and he is a big player who always take longer to develop. I use Logan Brown as an example people value him significantly more than Puljujarvi but I just dont see any argument as to why. They have produced at a very similar rate in t he AHL and Puljujarvi plays a more physical two way game. Then you think about the difference between Ottawa and Edmonton in developing players. I think this could be a great opportunity for Ottawa to aquire what could end up being a very good two way winger.

Puljujarvi has played 53 AHL games and has scored 37 points a .7 ppg.

Brown has played 56 AHL games and has 42 points a .75 ppg.

 

[Crosside]

Imagine a trade Pulju vs Tierney Tkachuk White Pulju
Duclair Anisimov Batherson
Ennis Pageau Brown
Balcers Chaplik Ryan

 

[BonkTastic]

I'd give Edmonton the Dallas 2nd rounder we have to take a chance on Poolparty.

I can't imagine it would take much more than that.

We can essentially give him as long as he needs to get back to full health after his surgeries. Manage his season & workload, play him every other game until January... The kid needs to play like 40 games this season, max. Hernia surgery ain't no joke. Basically get as much development as you can in while respecting a long-term rehab schedule that puts him in a position to really succeed in 2020/21.

 

[BonkTastic]

Puljujarvi has played 53 AHL games and has scored 37 points a .7 ppg.

Brown has played 56 AHL games and has 42 points a .75 ppg.

Puljujarvi just came off double-hernia surgery. Brown has not.

I know you know this. I'm just pointing it out to anyone else reading your post.

 

[sfulefty]

Rhetorical question, but Ottawa has 8 picks in the 2nd and 3rd rounds in the next two drafts. What is more practical, throwing a 2nd round pick for Puljujarvi, or using some of those picks to move up in the first round. (and possibly acquire another first rounder)

Look at when they draft Erik Karlsson, they used a 3rd round pick to go from 18th to 15th. (Not saying they'll draft another EK65, but you get the idea)

Two second round picks often gets you a late first round pick.

So with three first round picks already in the next 2 drafts, I wouldn't be surprised to see them use those 8 2nd and 3rd round picks to acquire another first round, and possibly move up from their existing 3 first rounders (most likely the SJ pick next year, which would most likely be lower than Ottawa's).

They burned a 3rd on Filatov years ago, and it was worth the shot, considering they have a similiar number of picks after trading Mike Fisher, Chris Kelly, etc.. So it might happen. But with them already sitting at 48 or 49 contracts, it's probably not likely that they will trade a pick for a player at this point, unless some other contract goes the other way. Just my guess.

Jesse Puljujarvi has been in a "pile of mud" with the Edmonton Oilers, says NHL's most astute insider

Jesse Puljujarvi tells Oilers: 'Trade me or I’ll play in Europe' - Sportsnet.ca

Sounds like Lazar.

No idea who he is or his play style tho.

 

[milkbag]

Puljujarvi just came off double-hernia surgery. Brown has not.

Double hip surgery for FAI fwiw. Still incredibly concerning to be having hip issues at such a young age.

 

[Senscore]

Why trade for him now when he'll be cheaper next year?

 

[Micklebot]

Obviously can't trade for him until Edm signs him and pays a giant signing bonus first...

 

[GrantLemons]

Obviously can't trade for him until Edm signs him and pays a giant signing bonus first...

Goes without saying

Ott: RNH, Puljarvii
Edm: Tierney, Abramov, Gustavson, 2nd 2020

Why would we give up Gustavsson?
