With absolutely no trade value from a former #4 pick overall, his overstated value on JP and his agent's side is doing nothing to help the player. The common idea is correct, sit or play for the Oilers or in the Oilers organization, or go play in Europe get better and play your way out of town.
Jesse has no leverage there and shame on the Oilers for playing a player who clearly was not ready or able to play a role on the NHL squad.
Go eat some pizza son, because you're not going to play in north america without the Oil.

Maybe it is because I was ready to move Puljujarvi anyway, but I'm looking to move him. Europe made sense if you were trying to develop him and keep him; if you are looking go improve your club and not act out of spite, you probably make a trade this summer. You don't take lowball offers, but you take a deal that will make your club better.
I don't believe Jesse's market value will increase substantially in Europe, and certainly you run the risk of him not improving at all and losing ANY value he does have now. And the Oilers need NHL wingers now; having a pouting prospect sitting in Europe doesn't help them in any way.
Phone Buffalo about Nylander. Phone Washington about Burakovsky. Phone St. Louis about Fabbri. Phone Winnipeg about Roslovic. Find someone willing go flip prospects, or else package Jesse up with other assets to bring in a Top-6 forward. Improve the club and don't get petty. We've seen that too often over the years with this club.

I would be targeting a guy like Burakovsky or Roslovic. You might have a better chance with Burakovsky. He was drafted to be a top 6 player, hasn't lived up to it after 5 seasons with the Caps. Coming off a 3 mill deal but still an RFA. The Caps might be looking to move along and would be looking for cap relief. It would take more than JP, either another pick or prospect because JP isn't a full time NHLer yet but perhaps a swap would benefit both teams. For the Oilers, they would be getting at the very least a bottom 6 NHLer with the potential to move up. The Caps would be getting a cheaper player who maybe can elevate.
