Pulkkinen can't skate well enough at the NHL level to use his shot. AHL goals don't mean much trust me on that one.

I certainly have no standing to argue with a former NHL player, but as someone that still watches a lot of Wings games and used to watch a lot of Griffins games, I feel like the problem is that when he gets called up, he feels like it is his role to shoot as much as humanly possible. He ends up taking a lot of bad shots because he is supposed to be the sniper. Like he has this stereotype that he feels he has to live up to or something.
Then again I am a pretty bad judge of skating I guess. I thought Adam Pardy was the worst skater in the history of the world watching him in 07-08 and he at least turned that into 300+ NHL games!
