If Pujujarvi would have spent the last 2 seasons honing his craft in the AHL, gaining confidence and experience, I wonder what kind of player he would have been in 2018/19?
I'm guessing a regular spot on the Oilers roster in the top 6 helping this team into the playoffs.

I heard Stauffer saying today that:
A) Puljujarvi lived on his own since the age of 13!!! Did not say why that was the case.
B) He got little support from the Oilers when he got here and was rushed in to the lineup
C) He was disheartened by his demotion in his rookie year, and the Oilers didn't help him with that adjustment either
D) He was disappointed to be healthy scratched for the first game he played against Laine
E) That the team had greater than usual responsibility for the failure to develop Puljujarvi so far.
Damning when even the team propagandist is blaming the organization...

Saw stories about the moving away thing before. He is from a very small town. Side note, it's actually mandatory for kids there to learn English, but small towns sometimes don't give a crap about that kinda stuff. He obviously never learned English in school growing up. I just compare that to AB small towns, kids I met in university admitted they were basically allowed to take diplomas with open books, leading to nice 95%+ marks for scholarships. Those guys usually flunked out in university though haha.
Anyways, he moved away from home to play hockey in the bigger city. Was living with a bunch of other boys, and I think some of the parents would come and help out to make sure the kids didn't all starve to death :) But yeah, he was living a pretty free existence from a very young age.
Oh, and this org is terrible.
