Speculation: Offersheeting Puljujärvi 2022

[Gordievsky]

I don't think it works, but kudos to OP for getting us to think about it.

$2.0 to $4.1 - compensation = 2nd round pick = Oilers easily match
$4.1 to $6.1 - compensation = 1st and a 3rd = depends on play this season, but personally I would take the picks and flip 1st for an upgrade, like MB did (but a better upgrade). Gut says err on the side of taking picks because I'm not convinced the damage between player and organization has been entirely repaired by Holland. I think bad feelings linger, and right now it's a marriage of convenience.
$6.1 to $8.2 - surely nobody could be so stupid - compensation = 1st, 2nd, 3rd. Oilers take picks and laugh all the way to the draft.

 

[Gordievsky]

How about trading for him and saving yourself the troubles of an OS?

This makes much more sense, if a team wants him that badly.

 

[Tarmore]

Because he isn't fast like mcdavid or big like drai is my guess but a person that has around the same physical capabilities that can compete for the ross and hart is on tampa in kucherov

So no real reason to declare him the smartest man in hockey ATM. Just your opinion.

 

[ole ole]

Another lack luster player with inflated stats because of playing with either mcjesus, drai or both. Why would you offer sheet this guy?

You nailed it.

 

[soothsayer]

Aho > McDavid at color commentary.

 

[Brown Cat]

If it's a good year, and he becomes a Sifverberg lite like I want him to, then it's tough. Another sub 30 point year and it's an easy match at a first rounder.

 

[NotAVacuumSalesman]

Yea, send the offer sheet over. Let Pizzaboy decide.

 

[Jerkbait]

if he scores 40g and 75pts, i can definitely see an offer sheet, that would make sense, around 8.250 - 8.50 0 mill per year.
Oilers won't be able to afford that.
So, we will take the draft picks.
2 Firsts. 1 second, 1 third round pick

40 g and 75 points??? The Sabres are more likely to win the cup then that. Whats a realistic ceiling? 25 goals and 55 points

That is more realistic but not bad either as he was great on the forecheck and solid defensively. He looked impressive at times last season. Lacked some finish while being Finnish. Sorry.

Will be interesting to see how he plays over a full season. Hyman and Puljujarvi are the likely candidates to lineup next to McDavid. Neither is going to light the scoreboard at an elite level but both will forecheck, board battle, create time and space for McDavid to do his thing.

 

[BB88]

50-60 points for him is out of the question for now. He hasn't shown that he could produce that much at any time yet.

I didn’t say he’s going to do it but 50 points isn’t out of question if he keeps taking steps into right direction

 

[Adam da bomb]

What is 50 pts worth these days? 3mil?

 

[jonlin]

More like 5M/

 

[Freudian]

These days only Finns sign offer sheet, so it looks plausible to me.

 

[Fatass]

What’s the compensation for a 3 million dollar offer sheet?

 

[jonlin]

What’s the compensation for a 3 million dollar offer sheet?

No point to even think about it. Oilers would match faster than lightning.

 

[Plural]

Is there some basis for you to say this? Or are you just assuming this because you and he are Finns?

He says it because Aho is a Finn.

Why would anyone want Puljujarvi on their team? The Oilers' whole problem is they're stuck with AHL caliber busts Puljujarvi and Yamamoto playing with McDavid and Draisaitl. 25 points in 55 games in the top 6 is not good for an offensive player on the worst team in the league, it's nothing more than pathetic next to McDavid...The average 2nd line caliber offensive player should be putting up PPG on a line with a nearly 2 PPG forward.

What an idiotic take lol. You are saying that JP is a finished product? He was getting better. Force on the forecheck. I would say he just needs to improve his finishing ability. Not every guy net to McDavid magically puts up monster points.

Puljujarvi would be a good energy 3rd liner, has all the tools but the toolbox isn't there

What’s the compensation for a 3 million dollar offer sheet?

• For AAVs below $1.35654 million, there is no compensation
• From that number to $2.055364, the price is one 3rd-round pick
• From that number to $4.110732, its one 2nd
• From that number $6.166096 its one 1st and one 3rd
• From that number to $8.221463, it’s one 1st, one 2nd and one 3rd
• From that number to $10.276829, it is two 1sts, one 2nd and one 3rd
• Over that number, it is four 1sts

 

[newsportsfan123]

idk, i think pulju could be worth an offersheet. with nino/trocheck contract up next season carolina should atleast look into trading for him. according to this thread he has became a really good forechecker which matches carolinas game, now imagine him with kotkaniemi at center. you would have two defensive forwards on the same line. anyway its not happening, carolina is 100% bringing jarvis over next season if nino walks. also for the person saying people were calling him a bust 2 years ago, alot of carolina fans wanted him and believed in him.

 

[Oilers In Tree]

If it's a good year, and he becomes a Sifverberg lite like I want him to, then it's tough. Another sub 30 point year and it's an easy match at a first rounder.

Not sure anyone asked.

Anyways, regarding if any team wants to screw their cap structure then go for it. Picks pls.

 

[Geardedandbearded]

Pulju will definitely be worth an offer sheet after this year IMO. The thing is the oilers are expecting yams and pulju to have good years and if it comes down to it, yam will be the one to go to make room for the other. Incoming optimistic fan prediction: pulju is 30+30 this year.

 

[sakux]

This is one of the ALL TIME worst takes I have ever seen on ANY WEBSITE ON ANY SUBJECT EVER.

No I'd say he nailed it
