Exactly - its just easy to piss away 2nd round picks before the selections. Last draft, Habs selected Struble with a 2nd and Norlinder was a 3rd round pick. Now compare to JP. Why take the gamble? If JP had any hockey sense i would consider it. But this is a deep draft. Those 2nds are valuable.
I personnaly think Puljujarvi has a good IQ, he just doesn't have the hands to match what he wants to do sometimes, If he plays under his abilities, he could exel at being a fast, big complimentary goal scoring wingers with decent playmaking abilty. Habs could be a good spot for him, we have the playmaking Centers, couple of Finns to help the transition and work on his english and coach understandings. Everyone knows we could use a big RW scoring winger.
We're gonna have to agree to disagree on this one, i have watched a ton of JP and i like his Hockey sense.No no no... he doesn't have any IQ (hockey or otherwise). He has physical attributes and tools but has no idea how to string them all together. His decision making is terrible. Julien would have another stroke.
Now with that said... maybe he's matured and developed in Finland. That's where the gamble lies.

Ask Oiler fans what they think.
Drouin is like a mensa-candidate compared to JP.
Definitely not. Struble and Norlinder really shouldn’t be moved.Would you trade Struble and Norlinder for JP?

I don't need other fan base or antoher person to tell me how i personally view a player. Like i said i like his Hockey IQ, he has great positioning in the Ozone, he does great quick rotation passes. He does patato sometimes but like i said i feel like that is due to his Meh puck skills and when he tries to do too much with the puck, that's just him finding his game as a young player. Doesn't change the fact that he thinks the game fast and a few tweaks, Maturity and the right role could do wonder for the kid.
Definitely not. Struble and Norlinder really shouldn’t be moved.
yes.Just to be clear, we are talking about Jesse Puljujarvi?
I would do a 2nd + 3rd.That's why 2 x 2nd round picks is an overpayment....
I would do a 2nd + 3rd.
I would do this as a Hab fan.I think this would be a good deal for both sides. I still kind of want to give Pulju a chance to come back and see if he can carve out a 3RW role (sign Haula and run with a 3rd line of Neal-Haula-Pulju), but if two 2nds were on the table I think we’d have to take it. I think draft capital will be huge this off-season if teams want to move out contracts.
Would also accept a variation to the deal for the Habs to take Chiasson:
To MTL: Puljujarvi, Chiasson
To EDM: STL 2nd (56th OA), MTL 3rd (77th OA)
Chiasson only has 1 year left at 2.15, he’s not a bad player, but is overpaid and we need to stretch every dollar if we’re gonna shake up the roster this off-season. If we replace him internally with a winger like Benson, that’s an extra 1.3 mil to go shopping.

sorry. not giving up 2, 2nds for him
Puljujarvi
2 x 2nds
they aren't. he was making a point about picksDefinitely not. Struble and Norlinder really shouldn’t be moved.
good point. and he probably hasn't been traded yet because the offers have been badPuljujarvi is trash. Holland takes this and creams his pants the second he hangs up.
like many, i have my doubts about him figuring it out. He will never be an elite RWer - and i'm happy to be proven wrong. An Armia clone maybe? that's not a top 6 forward - and that's not worth more than the gamble of a low 2nd or - maybe an exchange of underperforming prospects / players? Mete for Puljujarvi ?This i agree with.
Mtl 2nd + Ana 4th. i would do
Both teams are gambling here.
If and that a big if Puljujarvi becomes half decent it helps the Habs.
If he doesn't the Oilers get back 2 picks and a 2nd in a deep draft is never a bad thing to have.
