Don't stay up late waiting.

At this point I have a dream that he goes on a tear gets traded for a non protected first round pick in this year's draft to a struggling bubble team that either just misses or makes the playoffs.
Don't even care if the pick hits lotto love. Supposed to be a good draft.
I'd just as much have him turn his career around and come back here, but if he's made up his mind that's fine. Always thought he'd be a good fit with Nuge due to their speed and active sticks, and with Neal that could have been a great trio if things had gone a little differently.
Neal's great start has actually got me thinking. If he has a good season this year, and good season next year, what are the chances that Seattle picks him up in expansion?Neal supposedly plays much better on the RW. For good or bad he is here for 4 more years. Nuge maybe only 2. Our dreams of a Nuge Puljujarvi dominant #2 line are pretty much gone.
I used to think like you but I'm pretty sure that's not happening and I also am starting to have serious doubts about him reaching his potential.
Either he rots overseas or if he can actually prove something maybe we can use him to bring in or draft a solid #3 center.
It's a shame but maybe it turns out for the Oilers somehow.
The guy scores with an NHL release and there's always a way of finding fault or being negative about his game. haha....now it's the goaltending of another team.
Holyyy, you seem like a hater, to be honest. The ”low quality league” has produced some great talent. The shot in question here from Pulju was a great NHL release, you see these kinds of goals go in OFTEN in the NHL. Bud please, take a chill pill...He’s off his angle, tries to look over and outside and leaves half the net wide open on a shot he doesn’t see.
Beer league fundamentals and that’s statistically the best goalie in the Liiga right now. Shows you the quality of the league.
I am not referring specifically to this goal but has goaltending not been a strength of Liiga ?Another good example of why not to read into the points he's getting over there.
The goaltending in that league is horrific.

That's what's nice about Euros. He magically became a prospect again.I already almost forgot jp exists. If it wasn't for this thread popping up I would have forgotten about him completely
you're right its not a great league but guess what? Finland has always been a goaltending factory and thats something that simply cannot be ignored
Yeah Finnish goaltending fell off a while ago. They had a great generation with Backstrom, Kipper and then came Rask, Rinne shortly after. Since then they haven’t actually produced a lot of good goalies at all. Russia is actually producing a lot of good young goalies right now.That hasn't really been the case for a while.
Raanta(153), Korpisalo(94), Saros(81), Koskinen(61) and Ortio(37) are the top five in games played for Finnish goalies who have debuted in the last decade.
Isn't he like 24th in scoring there?
Get ****ed, JP. You're never going to play in the NHL again.
Personally I want to watch his fanboys squirm as they realize that he really does suck and it wasn't McDavid/McLellan/Draisaitl/Lucic/etc. dragging him down.Get ****ed? I don't understand this mentality. We want him to do well to raise his value, him getting "****ed" doesn't help anybody except bloodthirsty fans who want him to fail for some reason.
He's a young man who has made some mistakes. I think some people need to ease up a bit on the vitriol towards him. JMO
