Prior to last night’s Edmonton Oilers against the Toronto Leafs game, Zack Kassian was demoted to the 3rd line and Jesse Puljujarvi was moved up to 1st line RW full time in his place. Talk about a tale of 2 players. Kassian technically has the better boxcars, but even by the eye test, he’s a shadow of his former self. Other than the 1 goal he scored, I literally can’t remember a time he’s ever made an impact in the early going of this season.
I have yet to see or hear of him making a big hit on anyone.
