Hilariously bad organization does stupid stuff. |
The team allowed 5 goals McDavid had 5 points and he was -1.
That is generationally bad defence.
Plus... guess who else was -1 only with only of course with zero points.
Pulljujitsu... master of the pizza arts.

It's funny, but I am pulling for Puljarvji. Seems like a really good kid. And he was a Flames fan growing up.
You aren't seeing it in the boxscores right now, but he is actually playing quite well, he's just had some abysmal puck luck.

That’s interesting. I am kinda warming up to the idea of swapping him for Bennett....

Taking a while to get to 5000

When Lucic was moved for Neal I honestly thought Bennett & Puljujarvi were going to be part of the deal.
Bennett playing with his pal McDavid scares me though. If he's going to discover his game, watch it happen there.

I'm sure its a no from Calgary as well. we don't want to send a semi effectively physical bottom 6er to Edmonton for the so called arrive -6 2 assists Poolparty who will eagerly return to Europe next year thanks
Bennett might have low value. Right now Poolparty has no value no matter what Staples says

Good let’s stop suggesting it. As much as you rag on Puljuarvi, Bennett’s 1 point -4 isn’t going to get you much either.

@ topfiverecords
Remember, the bar for "playing well" in Edmonton is pretty low.

If you want to show off your Oiler gear, this isn't the thread to do it.

At this point in the season anyone on the Oilers with a plus/minus of minus 6 is considered to be doing "pretty well."

Yeah, they’re holding out for a 4th round pick to really flash their prospect drafting and developing acumen.

That's what we're saying.
Poolparty is not a bottom 6 player, he's not smart enough to be in the top 6 and produce. He lit up a minor league and everyone thought he was going to be this massive return. Instead he's the same Poolparty that he was before.
At least Bennett has shown that he can really function in the NHL, the jury is out on JP.
There's no use for him on the Flames except as a drag on the monthly pizza budget.

Really though Bennett has played in 7 games in a 4th and 3rd line role. Poolparty has actually got powerplay time and top 6 time and the fact he's got 2 points in 11 games despite playing on a line at times with McDavid is telling the NHL simply may not be for him. The reality is Bennett is going to be an NHL player for a long time even if he doesn't play top 6. Puljujarvi looks worse than Yakupov at this point and looks like a guy that's going to spend most of his career in Europe.
