TSN: Ryan Rishaug of TSN reported that the Edmonton Oilers talked to Jesse Puljujarvi’s agent Markus Lehto yesterday.
The Oilers are open to the idea of trading Puljujarvi if they are able to find the return they deem proper.
The idea of sending him to the AHL to help boost his offense and confidence is under consideration.
The fourth overall pick in 2016 has only four goals and five assists on 45 games.
Darren Dreger was on TSN 1260 earlier this week.
“There is a trade market for Jesse Puljujarvi, but my understanding is that the Oilers just want too much – the ask on him is way too high.
