I agree with you.
But I still have a hard time understanding why a player completely abandons his game that got him there completely. I see time and time again Puljujarvi getting the puck and passing up shots. Like maybe he's not developed enough to recognize the "correct play" so why isn't he reverting back to the basics? I have a hard time believing that if JP gains the zone, he's not 100% sure what to do so he goes super basic and he lets a good, hard shot go that Hitch is going to rip a strip off him. Or if he instead of passing, he takes it hard to the goal, that Hitch will shred him. He's not even doing any of that.

Some of that is confidence. Some is a recognition he can no longer blast from 60 ft out and expect to beat the goalie.
His shot rates aren't high enough to be successful yet, but we also don't want him taking long unscreened shots either, because those don't often beat NHL netminders.
I'd like to see him work on getting in to position for shots - he doesn't find that soft spot often, so he rarely gets one-timers. It would help if he ever got powerplay looks, because a skilled player with a good shot is going to get more opportunities to use it when the other team has one less guy on the ice, but the Oilers still seem to prefer not to use young guys on the man advantage.
"Thinking that a bad team's best players are the reason the team is bad is the "Tambellini re-signing Lennart Petrell" of sports opinions." @Woodguy55
