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

[Goulet17]

Bear for Jost

Ethan Bear? He is a RHD, correct? It does not seem like a fit with the Avs.

 

[Muffin]

Bear for Jost

Avs already have Makar and Barrie, don't see a fit there.

 

[Dessert Nights]

Save his career and let him play with Aho. What can Canes offer?

 

[82Ninety42011]

Why even float he is available? Is this some sort of crazy motivation play on managements part.

I'm pretty sure read his agent asked for him to be moved and I believe he refused an AHL demotion possibly?

 

[Cup or Bust]

It makes no sense to deal him unless it is something that can help the team otherwise it is pointless, just better off keeping him and hope he improves going forward.

 

[LyricalLyricist]

What's the realistic asking price for him? He's struggling a bit obviously but let's assume he's got that top 6 potential and all. What are Oilers looking for besides 'overpayment'?

 

[Habby4Life]

They got to move this kid. It seems toxic right now

 

[Habby4Life]

Puljujarrvi for spooner

Oilers need to add.

Pulujarvi+ for a top six scoring forward

You know how you got Drouin, right?

I'd probably do a trade for JP around Byron, Shaw or Lehkonen from habs. None of which are top 6 but kind of complimentary forwards who have term(or RFA rights). Byron basically with top speed like McDavid and good for PK, 20 or so goals a year.

May not be what Oilers want though.

 

[Pi]

Drouin was far more proven than Puljujarvi. He had a 50 point season before he was traded.

 

[Red Piller]

lol check out the leeches in here bringing in their trash for a crack at a 20 year old former super Finn old finding his way in the NHL.

I’ll give you a 4th

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Drouin was far more proven than Puljujarvi. He had a 50 point season before he was traded.

And his attitude was much, much worse.

Point remains, Edmonton isn’t interested in giving Puljujarvi away for scraps.

I like Byron and Lehkonen well enough, but I don't think I'd do this trade. I think there will be better offers out there.

Who cares what he gets traded for or what people are offering. The situation is a big giant dumpster fire. Pulj looks lost out there and isn’t showing anyone why he would be a 4th overall pick. The shine from being a top pick is gone.

It’s pretty clear the kid isn’t developing in the nhl, the agent needs to shut up, and the kid needs to accept being sent down to the A.

The situation is not far from being another Yak. One more season of the same and the oil will be making another yak trade.

 

[Habby4Life]

You know how you got Drouin, right?

Yes, and he has issues but Pulj couldn’t carry his equipment bag.

 

[Gert B Frobe]

Don't think the Oilers need Simmonds but the Flyers would probably love to give a guy like Puljujujuvajurvji a second chance.

Playing with 5 superstars and getting prime PP time.
Yzerman pumped and dumped

 

[member 290103]

Puljujarvi for Markus Granlund and Brandon Sutter

 

[Robongo01]

Puljujarvi for Markus Granlund and Brandon Sutter

Yes please

 

[Burnt Biscuits]

Drouin was far more proven than Puljujarvi. He had a 50 point season before he was traded.

I think the point was Drouin pouted and was acting up (and to a greater degree than Pulju), Tampa was patient, waited it out, then he came in played well got his points and then got traded with a good season under his belt.

Drouin at the time he was traded should certainly have more value than if Pulju was traded now since Drouin proved something, but is there anything stopping the Oilers from using the same patient approach Tampa had and trading him later for potentially more? That's where I think the logical argument being alluded to was going.

 

[JTRAIN1966]

Struggling Finnish prospect trade. JP for Juolevi. Does either team do it?

Why not Tolvanen from, Nashville ?

 

[JTRAIN1966]

Or.........St. Louis for, Fabbri & Sanford & Edmonton sends JP + ?

 

[Brock Radunske]

I just gave myself a concussion from the face palm I just did...

I'd do a trade around Chiasson for Domi. Not sure that's what the Habs are looking for, though.
