Couldn’t agree more. And now it’s just expected that he figures it out and figures it out now. Started, again, when Hitch said they need Jesse to be a player if they expect to go anywhere, that he’s ‘the type of big bodied player they need to compete in the west’. His game would have/still can, improve to the point of eliminating the rushed (and poor) decisions while building his confidence with some time spent on him not on the 3rd/4th line.
At what point do they cut bait and get a viable return while they can, rather than lose him for less than magic beans as they did Yakupov?

Here's the problem - they either have to identify that they want him and will develop him (and think he can develop) or they have to decide he's not worth the risk.
The Oilers are so good at shooting themselves in the foot, so they've already started eroding his trade value. They are incredibly leaky - it's pretty clear listening to Friedman's podcast that he has actually talked to MULTIPLE people in the organization and that they want it to be known that:
- they are openly looking for deals
- they are open to trading the future for a shot at this year's playoffs
- the first rounder is in play
- Puljujarvi is, to an extent, in play - and that there's disagreements within management about that player!?!?
Not to mention, the incredible admission that the team's GM is on a leash and needs to decide "collaboratively" what is going to happen, and that the owner has basically suggested there are jobs on the line if they don't make the playoffs.
It's an incredible set of disclosures to a source that has one of the furthest carrying voices in the league. If you're another team and you're NOT calling the Oilers right now to see how you can pick this carcass, you're probably not doing your job.
If I was running the team, I'd be willing to move Puljujarvi, but I'd be telling any team that calls how much we believe in the player and how high his ceiling is, and that to get us to move on from that player would require a greater return than even the 1st round pick - which is pretty uncertain as to who you get for that.
