Hurricanes Acquire Jesse Puljujarvi
2 years agoThe Carolina Hurricanes have acquired right wing Jesse Puljujarvi from the Edmonton Oilers in exchange for forward prospect Patrik Puistola. Puljujarvi has not been able to live up to the expectations since being selected fourth overall in the 2016 NHL Draft, and he has only managed to score five goals and add nine assists through 58 games this season. The 24-year-old is in the final year of his current contract and can become a restricted free agent this summer. Puljujarvi could benefit from the fresh start in the Hurricanes organization and regain fantasy value, while joining the core of Finnish forwards that includes Sebastian Aho, Teuvo Teravainen, and Jesperi Kotkaniemi.
