That’s the thing Puljujarvi really doesn’t have any “Oiler stink” on him as they have basically left him in the dark and have done nothing to develop him as has been widely reported.
Puljujarvi also never asked to go to Edmonton - he deserves to be saved.
It’s also commonly known that Treliving was in on Talbot before the Oilers got him. I think Tre goes after him in free agency anyways so this would give us a window to test him out prior to that. Talbot was on the rise and played in god mode until the Oilers rode him into the ground. I think he could absolutely be a reclamation project.
Basically everyone who leaves Edmonton gets better, maybe other than Yakupov. I’d take a flyer on either of these 2 players if they came at a low price
