So when this current contract is over, I bet he goes back to Europe.
You know it is way too early to say any of this.

Devan Dubnyk went through 3 different organizations until he finally was able to wash off the demoralizing denigrating self worth Oiler management, fans, and media heap on high draft picks that do not meet their insane speculations.

Puljujarvi is an NHL player, with incredible tools, that someone like Rod Brindamour can unlock. Either way, he will make sure Jesse plays the right way and strip off the lazy Oiler habits of cheating the game.
