Keystone Press

Newly acquired Edmonton Oilers forward Jussi Jokinen recently spoke to media at training camp and talked about fellow teammate and countryman Jesse Puljujärvi. Both being from Finland, Many were assuming that Jokinen was brought into the organization to look after Jesse but Jokinen does not want to be part of that plan so much.


He stated that the media blew that "story line" out of proportion. He believes that although he will be able to help the young forward out, He wants the focus to be on helping the whole team and not just Jesse.
