Today, the Carolina Hurricanes did what everyone has been waiting for the last few days and made a trade with the Edmonton Oilers. Don Waddell and the Canes acquired forward, Jesse Puljujarvi.
Going back to Edmonton is Patrik Puistola. The Oilers did not retain any of Puljujarvi’s contract.
What does this mean for the Canes and their plans moving forward before the NHL trade deadline?
The hope of the organization is that the Fin will find the form that made him a first-round draft choice. Maybe teaming up with fellow countryman Sebastian Aho will assist in a resurgence.
