JP hasn't started the exhibition games the best way. 0+0 in the first two games and according to some fan reports I've read he hasn't performed very well. He's had some moments on the powerplay but nothing to show for so far. Still playing on the first line and pp.

For his defense Kärpät has had six team practices so far but JP has attended only one of them.

How many hockey match you are played.
And how much you know to junior development.

If you could judging 17 yrs old NHL prospect, i assume you can prove that you are better than Jesse.
So why you don't go on the ice, and show for Jesse how to score and make some impressive impact for NHL scouts.

May i remind you.
Jesse Puljujärvi was the best player in 2013 pohjola camp.
If he would be a bust just like you think, wether him ever chosen for?

No I don't think so

I agree with most you say but Pohjola camps are too early to say that they are going to be amazing, as some of them have progressed nicely some of them can't even become Liigas best players.

Overreact much???

Where did he call him a bust?

Wow where did that come from? :D I just gave an report of what I read about his play in exhibition games. Jeez....

I've gotta be one of the biggest pulju lover here so don't give me any of that.

That's true, Pohjola camp is only junior development camp.
Facts tell that maybe only 3 pro-cent of pohjola camp juniors could become NHL players.

Puljujärvi is natural world class talent, if we look back in time let's say 10 years.
We ( Finns) should be proud those prospects, what we are developed for NHL.

I try be optimistic and that's why i believe, Puljujärvi will be NHL player someday.
That Puljujärvi hasn't performed well, in preseason exhibition matches won't tell whole truth.

Only NHL scouts knows what the truth is.

For his defense Kärpät has had six team practices so far but JP has attended only one of them.

He was one of the most noticable players on the ice vs Luleå. Skated extremely well and was much better defensively than he was last year, forechecked the puck away from the defender two times.

Didn't get that much icetime on 5vs5 since both teams took a lot of penalties and Kärpät played all 4 lines evenly but he definitely stood out in a good way.

Turned over the puck without much pressure a few times in the first period, but got better when the game went on. He tries to carry the puck himself a bit too much on the center ice and needs to pass it earlier.

Kärpät used pretty random PP units and looked like they haven't been practicing it that much. Puljujärvi played about 3 minutes on the powerplay total and got some one timers away from the left side but didn't score. Seemed to have some chemistry with Niemi on the PP already which is good to see this early.

Sure his finishing could be better but at this point it's more important for him to be able to play good two way game. His offensive game will improve once he gets comfortable with the system.

Aaltonen, Ikonen, Kalapudas and Huml were all worse than Puljujärvi so I'm not really worried about him.

If Pulju can get his two way game up to standards and play within Marjamäki's tactics, he will play regularly and the points will come. I hope that he doesn't need to go to Kajaani again all the time... But he will go there if Marjamäki sees that he isn't ready to play in one of europes big teams.

Thanks for the update! Good to hear that his defensive game has proven. I hope he can develop in a stable environment this year and work on his game in Kärpät. I'm extremely excited to see what he can do with Niemi. I read that his passes already found JP's stick multiple times which is very promising. I hope that the coach will have the patience to keep those two guys together.

@FinnHockeyFan I don't get where you are going with this. I never said anything negative about his potential or anything. Neither did I say that the pre season games are important. If you'd read back this thread you would find me defending Jesse against all the skeptics here. Just for once I tried to give a non-biased report...:cry:
 
I didn't notice any questions about Puljujärvi's hockey IQ before this summer. Why it suddenly came up?

At first he can't score any goals and now his hockey IQ is bad. Is it result of the overhyping? He hasn't been very good in pre-season and CHL games from what I've heard but we'll see when the season starts and progresses.

OH I kind of just talked about the whole IQ thing in the Laine thread, should've talked about it here instead I guess

People realized that his IQ has been bad all along but didn't notice it until now based on four CHL games.
