Hey Ek...when your "source" told you about all the teams interested in Puljujarvi for centre...did you ask them why they didn't tip you off about the Strome for Spooner deal?

Ek. Pretend like you know hockey. For once.

PLD is a point per game #1 centre

McDavid is #1.
RNH is #2.
And Puljujarvi is buried behind them. So if someone is looking for a potential #1 center then they should consider Puljujarvi.

12 hours in and EK still hasn't figured out Pulju is a winger. Sounds about right...

Since research is NOT a prerequisite in order to post on here I will add what I've learned from my sources. There's talk that Pulijarvi is coming to Toronto for Nylander, a 1st, 2nd, 3rd round pick. Leafs may need to sweeten the pot and add a player who could have a huge upside if he develops. Someone like Marner. Pulijarvi for Nylander, Marner, a 1st, 2nd, 3rd MIGHT get Edmonton at least thinking about a deal. Leafs may need to sweeten the pot by throwing in Kapanen. So the deal would look something like Pulijarvi to the Leafs for Nylander, Marner, Kapanen, a 1st, 2nd and a 3rd round pick.

I could see a Puljujarvi for Sprong swap. The pens would probobly need to add a C level prospect or a 4th rounder (or something) since JP has at least proven "something" in the league. But, then again, maybe not...it is GMPC we're talking about.

He'll, maybe the Pens could move Sheahan and bring in Spooner while they're at it. Actually, the Oilers may add to get a shut down center of Sheahans caliber lol

The Sens are not going to be anywhere close to a seller?? They traded Karlsson and Hoffman. Stone and Douchene are pending UFAs. So theyre going to hang onto them and let them leave for nothing? Not buying it!

The Pens will ake both of them too. You can have Murray, Grant, Garrett Wilson and a second.... (1st if the pens resign either).

He's not a center and Ottawa's 1st round pick went to Colorado in the Douchene trade. WOW.....just WOW!!!

Jesse is a RW not a center, why are we discussing Jesse with teams that need center help?

Remember when the Oilers drafted Puljujarvi and there were like endless articles about how they found McDavid's Jari Kurri?

Ek didn't understand the parallel. He thought Jari Kurri was a good 2C to take some pressure of Gretzky. Messier and Coffey were Wayne's wingers.

The Canadiens effect. Keep trading for wingers and making them centres until it works. They have a 50% success rate, so the league is adopting this strategy.

Also. I love how a hockey trade actually happened and this site didn’t cover it at all. Yet there’s this article on the top page.

Jesus Christ man.......pulijarvi is worth WAAAAAAAY more than sprong. Pitt is adding a hell of a lot more than a 4th rd pick to that deal.

One is an unproven late 2nd rd pick.....the other is a younger, better, more proven 4th overall pick (who’s probably already a star if he was drafted by another organization)

TERRIBLE trade offer for the oilers.

Jesus dude......are you functionally retarded? With the trades you’re proposing, you’d have a hard time convincing me you aren’t.

You’re making guys like alfie, prock, and spatso look good

The more stupidity he posts the more replies he gets. = hits which = more money.

Hasnt anyone noticed the most re di culous crap he posts gets the most resposnses? This guy is as bad if not worse than garf.

And the worst responses are usually from season ticket holders. A few good ones, but for the most part the most idiotic are from tix guys.

1) Puljujarvi is a winger ya dunce! I ALMOST cant believe you based an entire post around inaccuracies.What the Ek? lol How lazy is that?
2) Jarmo Kekalainen very famously passed on this player barely two years ago. Where is the motivation for Kekalainen to move assets for a skater that is developing the way he anticipated he would? He didn't chose Pierre Luc Dubois because he preferred him over Puljujarvi. He avoided the player for a reason.


I've never posted a comment on this blog before, so that should tell you something
