David Staples of the Edmonton Journal: The Finnish site Kalevia.fi posted an article that’s title suggested that Jesse Puljujarvi softened his stance on an Edmonton Oilers return to “Never say never.”
The article is behind a paywall, but Mari Lonnberg tweets that says “Puljujärvi repeating his stance ‘never say never’ when asked if returning to Oilers is possible. He says though that everything is open now and he hasn’t set any time lines for the decision. Playing with Kärpät is also an option for the next season.”
Bob Stauffer: Edmonton Oilers forward Jesse Puljujarvi is still a good prospect, but believe that it wouldn’t be easy for the Oilers to trade him for another prospect that has the same high ceiling as he does.
