If we talk about GF/GA am I right that Puljujarvi was the best forward after the 1st line before he was demoted to the 4th line?
He was -1 at that time while at least now the best of the rest have -2. So I didn't see a reward for him for that, instead he was demoted. Until that he had only 2GA in almost 6,5 games, so in the top6 he hasn't been a liability in that sense.
I'm not totally against a demotion, benching and stuff like that as long as it's fair and the players are on the same level. This isn't the case in the team, but it's nothing new with Todd. Don't take me wrong, I'm not mad or anything this time if Pulju doesn't get to play and as I didn't see the game I don't know enough, but according to highlights (which naturally miss the little details) and what I read (e.g. EJ) I'm not sure he was really that bad. Especially compared to Kassian and Brodziak.
