Let's keep this thread on the topic please. This thread is about Puljujärvi, not about who posts here. There's no need to be impolite if you happen to disagree with something. It's pretty annoying to read a post after post of meaningless bickering. :shakehead

The season is just starting, Puljujärvi is playing fine, even though one would like to see some flash and dazzle once in a while.

Sounds intriguing. I think this might work if they are given a proper chance. As long as they don't get stuck to their own end. I think they know each other so well that it will benefit their game. I hope and think that Puljujärvi will look more comfortable out there.

FINALLY! Let's hope that this combination gets a fair chance and doesn't get re-shuffled immediately. This combination has a long history of working, so it's intriguing to see them try it out in the men's league. Also, from the WJC lineup standpoint, this is great news. Work that chemistry, boys :handclap:
 
Getting better with each game. Setup Aaltonen and Aho with really good scoring opportunities but both failed to score.

He also carried the puck from the own zone to the offensive zone a few times today, which he hasn't done at all this year.

Kärpät has one weird ass setup on the powerplay with 3 right handed shots in Puljujärvi's PP line and 5 lefties on the other. Hopefully they can think of something that works soon.
 
Nice little interview from Jesse at Jatkoaika.com after tonight's game.

He basically says "the start of the season could have gone better stat wise" but also states the opponent hasn't scored while he's been on the ice. He also said he didn't have any specific area to focus when training in summer but mentioned he has gain more strength.

Lastly he says he's a good friend of Patrik Laine (they have been roommates in national junior tournaments) and compliments him by saying it's good Laine has scored again because "he's a good boy at playing (ice hockey)". He hasn't felt any pressure or anything because he's not been on the scoreboard as much as he would have wanted. Now he just plays game by game and goes forward as a player that way.

Hope the kid will really kick off soon scoringwise and say goodbye to that depressive slump he is been trampping the start of the season. Then we might have a player there, for real.

Yeah, looking better lately. And people writing him off or stating comments about his hockey IQ based on a couple months performance are... well, clueless. Look at how Laine has played in the past year or so, young players will have difficult times.

I fully expect Jesse to rise his level and challenge Laine for the best European draftee this year.
 
what are Puljujärvi's latest meassurements? Especially his last reported weight?

Eliteprospects have him listed as:
187cm/6'2"
82kg/181lbs
:laugh:

Thanks! how accurate is 92kg? are these very recent meassurements? he looks heavier and supposively put on quite a bit of weight during the summer
 
Nice assist by poke checking the puck from veteran player Saravo.


Jesse playing strong game in front of the scouts. Started in 3rd line, now in 1st line and 1+1 so far.
