they talked about this in the Trade Rumour thread.
I see him getting 500 goals and 1300 points....this season...and still not being first on the team in anything because of McJesus.

I guess that puts their forward roster at something like
Maroon-McDavid-Cagiula
Lucic-Draisaitl-Strome
Jokinen-Nugent-Hopkins-Puljujarvi
Khaira-Letestu-Kassian
Pretty meh tbqh. Would be solid if they had our blue line, but with their blue line I don't see it. Bubble playoff team.

I believe in the Jays.

That's a shame. He's a pretty good player. Hope that spurs Treliving to add one more piece up front (C'mon Jagr!)

Oh....when it comes to the Oilers nothing matters.
Talbot might want a pocket Dawg during the second and Jokinen will have to play net.
Thats just how they roll. Wacky bastards.

He's slower, but still extremely smart on the ice. I am kinda annoyed that he went from one of my favorite teams to my hatred rival. It means that I can't wish him good luck.

One positive is it's less room for Iginla.

Wow, when you look at it that way, that's not a great group of forwards outside of McDavid and Draisaitl. I would think that ready or not Puliujarvi is playing in the NHL. He had his moments in the AHL, but for the most part was pretty underwhelming.
The other thing that stands out once you add Jokinen. outside of McDavid, that's not a fast group of forwards.

When I initially saw that third line, I thought:
"Wow, Edmonton is so No Good that they had to put 4-players on a line."

Lol... Is 34 year old Jokinen really that good? His stats are nothing to write home about.

No he's not that good, I remember that his claim to fame was he was a shootout specialist.
Maybe they can put him on a line with Letestu and Lucic and call it the SOS line (Slow as shyte) or the Molasses line.
