The Finnish winger will draw back into the lineup Wednesday against Arizona and has the opportunity to prove his worth on the NHL roster. Puljujarvi has struggled so far this season, posting just a single goal and eight points through 23 games.
Though Edmonton was looking to send Puljujarvi to the AHL to give him more time and development toward his skills, this could be the chance for him to find his scoring touch. The 18-year-old has a single goal and eight points through 23 games this season.
Taylor Beck will also fight for a spot on the roster, especially given the performance he has put up with Bakersfield.
