Almost makes it sound as though they (Jesse and Kailer) would be better served in Bakersfield right now. Who’d have thought!
We (The Oilers) need to bring in two wingers (remember, Chia said wingers are easy to acquire) to play at least middle 6 then send JP and Yamamoto to Bakersfield for the rest of the season. Let them play, and develop, down there. Right now isn’t about developing players in Edmonton, it’s about wins. Do this and bring them up for Playoffs (or whenever Bakersfield is eliminated) so they can experience the atmosphere and get a taste.
We’re set at centre, McDrai, Nuge, Cave and Brodz. Khaira can slide back to 4C if an injury occurs or rest is needed to keep Connor and Leon together (unless the unthinkable happens and an injury is sustained by one of the big 3 *KNOCK ON WOOD*).
If they’re reluctant to send JP to Bakersfield and if his value is at a point we can get a good return (read: a player who can slide in to our top 6 [to reiterate, top 6] on wing for the push AND beyond), you pull the trigger. Otherwise, you use that 1st round pick to bring in a player to play top 6 wing and perhaps move a dman for a bottom 6 winger and send JP & Yam down. It’s pretty clear that despite the odd flash, Jesse needs more seasoning.
If they want playoffs, there’s the game plan.
(I’m conflicted. I keep going back and forth in my mind regarding trade/keep JP. But in order to send him to Bakersfield, they need to bring in a winger bc our depth is absolute trash [thanks PC] and JP is one of the limited sources of trade bait with value, or perceived value anyway).

I'll be honest, I don't mind the idea of young skilled guys playing on the fourth line. However, I'd like them playing with other young skilled guys, not plugs, and I'd like to make it clear that they are out there to outscore the opposition's fourth line. Think the Kid Line in the 1990 Stanley Cup run.
They may not play big minutes, but they are playing with other skilled guys and trying to make a difference. They're probably getting some PP reps too - possibly on the second unit (which means next to no reps for the Oilers, but that's another story).
Playing Puljujarvi with Rieder on the fourth line isn't bad to me. Brodziak isn't great because he's looked liked a plug now, but he's scored in the past. That line tonight isn't bad. I wouldn't even mind the idea of Puljujarvi, Yamamoto and a skilled young center (Marody?)
That said, I'm not opposed to these guys getting big minutes in the AHL instead and let them excel there before rushing them back...and excelling is NOT 2-2-4 in 4 games or 4-4-8 in 11...
