Puljujarvi notched just three goals and one assist in 22 games for the Penguins this season. Puljujarvi didn't sign with the Pens until February, so perhaps a full training camp will help set him up to produce more offensively next season. Even so, the 25-year-old winger is unlikely to challenge for a top-six role next year.

Puljujarvi registered an assist in a 5-2 win over the Rangers on Monday. Puljujarvi has generated two goals, one assist and seven shots in six games since returning to the lineup. The winger is firmly cemented in a bottom-six role, as Drew O'Connor and Michael Bunting continue to see top-six opportunities with the Penguins' star centers.

Puljujarvi scored a goal on two shots in Sunday's 5-4 overtime loss to Colorado. Puljujarvi has been struggling to break into the lineup recently, playing in just two of the Penguins' last eight contests. Since signing with Pittsburgh, the 25-year-old has notched just two goals and zero assists in 13 contests, which is not exactly the offensive spark the club was hoping for.

Puljujarvi signed a two-year, $1.6 million contract with Pittsburgh on Sunday. Puljujarvi has notched four goals and nine points in 13 games with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton this season. In 75 NHL appearances between Edmonton and Carolina last campaign, he supplied five goals, 11 assists, 125 shots on net and 139 hits. Puljujarvi should compete for a middle-six spot in the lineup with Pittsburgh.

Puljujarv (hip) is expected to sign an AHL professional tryout agreement with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton this week, Taylor Haase of DKPittsburghSports.com reports. Puljujarvi will be permitted to play in up to 25 AHL games while on a PTO with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. Formally, this will end his current NHL tryout deal, but the fact that he's stuck around the Penguins' organization this long suggests there is some mutual interest in eventually getting the winger signed to a two-way NHL contract.
