from Terry Jones of the Edmonton Sun,
Everybody makes mistakes. And, boy, did Edmonton Oilers general manager Peter Chiarelli make a Monster of a mistake with Jonas Gustavsson.
You could also say he made another by keeping his 18-year-old fourth overall pick in the draft, Jesse Puljujarvi, here playing minuscule minutes or not playing at all.
The GM, who is way ahead on points with the trade deadline acquisition of Pat Maroon alone, much less the half dozen other good moves he’s made, finally made a mid-course correction by waving the holey goalie and shipping the not-yet-ready-for-prime-time Finn to the farm.
Score both as ‘It’s about time’ moves.
Lets start with Gustavsson.
