It was widely rumoured that the Edmonton Oilers and Jesse Puljujarvi were headed towards a mutual separation.
Puljujarvi's asking price from the club was too high and both felt best that he find other opportunities.
NHL insider Elliotte Friedman was the first to report that the two parties have now agreed to terms on an extension:
Puljujarvi appeared in 65 games with the Oilers last season and recorded 14 goals and 22 assists.
This deal means the Oilers are now planning on keeping the winger or that it could make it easier for the them trade him. as teams don't have to worry about an arbitration hearing.
