Really? You think Nuge should be on this team long-term?
Is it better to have Drai as an 80 point 1RW/Nuge as a 40 point 2C or Drai as a 70 point 2C/Puljujarvi as a 55 point 1RW?
55 points is reasonable for Puljujarvi as McDavid's RW next season and 60 ~ 70 points after that.

Is a much better line combo for the Oilers long-term. If Nuge earns a spot with the Oilers long-term it will be as a RW.
There are no guarantees that Puljujarvi will be a top line player in NHL... one can easily argue Puljujarvi wont be anything more than a Paajarvi or Yakupov. RNH is proven and proven #2Cs dont grow on trees... all this RNH trade talk needs to be put on hold until we know what we have in Strome, Draisaitl(as C) and Puljujarvi. 0 reasons to trade him right how... would rather walk away from both Maroon and Strome instead right now..
