Confirmed with Link: Charlotte Checkers sign Jesse Puljujarvi to a PTO

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

I'm kinda lost at this one, usually when a player leaves an NHL contract midseason it's to go to Europe, but yeah he's signed a tryout with the Panthers AHL team. It's literally no risk but I wonder if the Panthers want to throw him in at some point to see how he looks. You'd figure he's been promised a look at some point?

lmao I called it


Power Bomb next

I was hoping they would give him a shot honestly. Surround him with other Finns and see if he gets comfortable

 

[Felidae]

Apparently Pulju still doesn't know much English. I'm not sure if it's an effort thing or if he's just not good at learning a new language, but either way this is probably as good as an environment he could ask for given we have the most Finnish players in the league. (And if he's satisfied possibly playing on the 4th line)

Don't mind this at all.

 

[Gentle Man]

Dont let him make it to the main squad, because I swear to all that is holy....the league is cooked.

 

[Kaptah]

Puljujärvi just terminated a one way deal to get more playing time. He was riding the bench with Sullivan's Penguins. The kid sure does not give up easily.

Not expecting much. Potential was always there but never figured it out. I think he’s just dumb as f***.

Of course, it's like a try-out. At worst, he helps Charlotte win a few games.

I think it's a combo of laziness and he needs to have the right fit. If he doesn't make it here, he won't any where.

You will see that Jesse is better than Sullivan allowed him to be.

 

[Mogo]

It's with Checkers. It's not a contract with us. So we cant call him up. Right?

It is a PTO with Checkers. He needs to sign an NHL deal before he can be called up to play for the Panthers.

What do you think, is it an impossible mission to beat one of your 3rd or 4th line wingers for a job? How good are they?

Ok, Jesse. Good luck in Charlotte.

Tihihihi.

Give him a shot. It’s rare to be able to sign players who played for a winning organization (Edmonton).

Unless there are major injuries or he suddenly becomes a player I dont see him making the Panthers this year. I wouldnt mind him as a project next season as we have plenty of finns to help him and finnish coach

I hope so. I always like him

He has a shot. It depends on how Maurice views his play, if he can get a look with the NHL team.

 

[WaitingForThatCab]

I don't mind the signing, but right now I don't think the Panthers can pull Greer out of the lineup on a regular basis.
