TSN: Puljujarvi's Agent - "Might be actually benificial [to go] different paths, different routes"

[GoldiFox]

Agent Markus Lehto just worked out Teravainen's sweetheart deal with the Canes. Wonder if they have talked Puljujarvi.

What would boost Puljujarvi's confidence more than joining a team with Aho/TT? Canes have one of the NHL's top prospect pools to deal from.

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

not a chance id move that 2nd for him

I would take a risk on him... but idk what id actually give up for him... tough to put a value on him.

 

[Kranix]

KGretz should really be picking S-House and MacT's brains on this one. See if there's any players out there he should be targeting in a 1-for-1 involving Pulju.

Yeah Canes would obviously be the best fit for him. Aho has the brains for both of them, so JP can just try to use his hands and feet.

 

[SpeakingOfTheDevils]

No one's going to pay top dollar for him; that'd be nuts.

A tough line for Edmonton to toe. If I'm them, I hang onto Puljujarvi and just hope for the best.

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

are they gonna look for compensation based on his draft position...or on his actual play

just a wee bit of a gap between those two

 

[McOvechking]

I could see Detroit trying to develop Puljujarvi. Not sure what they'd be willing to give up for him, though. Honestly, a decent prospect + a 2nd round pick would be fine with me.

 

[ManofSteel55]

Forgot to add that he loses waiver exemption next season.

At the beginning of the season, or part way through due to games played?

 

[PensandCaps]

Idk that id even trade our 2nd for him right now.... that 2nd could be borderline 1st.

No. You do that easily. Chances are you won't find a guy with the potential of Puljujarvi in even the late 1st round.

 

[justafan22]

Cap Friendly says it's 2019-20 he needs waivers.

160 games or 3 years played in the NHL.

Still have Bean or Fleury lying around somewhere?

With young players, potential is always a big part of the valuation. I'm guessing that the only way Pulujarvi gets moved is if somehow a further along top six forward is included. Obviously that would most likely be Pulujarvi+ for something. I floated Hoffman earlier, but that would take Edmonton clearing some cap, and it assumes that the Panthers actually want to clear Hoffman's salary to go after Panarin and Bobrovsky.

 

[ManofSteel55]

So, yeah - they need to just send him down for the rest of the year then. Let him play on a good AHL team.

 

[Seanaconda]

the microscope is on you Keith... lets see what you got

EVERYONE is waiting to see that first trade you make

I’m waiting for his draft tbh. It’ll be a miracle for the oilers to make any trade that isn’t just to clear cap

 

[innitfam]

Meh. Best case scenario the Oilers get a second round pick. May as well see what you have in him before throwing in the towel

 

[frisland]

Russell, Puljujarvi and a 2nd round pick for Zibanejad

counter offer : nurse, puljujarvi 1st ....
also why of all things would edm need another center...

 

[Seanharold]

Russell, Puljujarvi and a 2nd round pick for Zibanejad

might be one of the worst trade proposals I've ever seen

 

[34]

The return will be minimal. AHL player... bust.

Pulujarvi screams a draft day trade to a team wanting to clear money for UFA season to start, and not for a pick. I'm thinking Pulujarvi, Edmonton's 2nd, and something else for a roster player for next year.

Of course, Edmonton needs to clear some cap space first, so there is that.

 

[These Are The Days]

So is he going to the AHL or what? JP makes Yakupov look like Taylor Hall and I sincerely doubt with all my heart that no one else but the Oilers still sees him as a 20 year old 4th overall pick with new car smell and all the potential that comes with it. I'll be shocked if anyone wanted to give up even a 3rd rounder for him.

He needs to get to the AHL and if he refuses then he can basically kiss his career goodbye because no one is gonna take a flyer on "Colossal bust refuses AHL assignment"

And he needs to be there ALL of next year too. Do not risk the waiver wire. It is NOT too late to salvage his career but they need to do it now

 

[ManofSteel55]

The return will be minimal. AHL player... bust.

Can you read? The price tag is high. If the offers are minimal AHL players, then there won't be a trade.

 

[KevinRedkey]

Define minimal

I mean, you don’t want to trade any of the appealing ones, though. We have no need for LHD, where you’re strongest, and you propose Fleury about six times a week. Don’t need prospect goalies either. What else have you got that’s moveable?

The rumours are that teams are interested, just not at the price tag the Oilers have placed on him, and that they still like him as a player.

It probably is also not a case of "refusing an AHL assignment", as much as Chiarelli probably promising his agent that if he signed in Edmonton instead of in Finland, that they wouldn't send him down. Handshake deal. Thus, the negotiation with the new temporary GM. "It's not my deal, and it isn't what is best for Jesse in our opinion.". But if they just send him down, they risk him not signing in Edmonton and signing in Europe next year if that happened. Hard to develop a guy if he is playing on the other side of the planet in a different organization.

I can read. The player is not worthy of a relevant return. No team is going to give up anything of value. No way.
