The Edmonton Oilers traded forward Jesse Puljujarvi to the Carolina Hurricanes for prospect Patrik Puistola on Tuesday.

Puljujarvi has five goals and 14 points in 58 games this season. The 24-year-old tallied a career-high 14 goals and 36 points in 2021-22.

The Oilers aren't retaining any of Puljujarvi's $3-million cap hit, according to TSN's Pierre LeBrun. He's an impending restricted free agent.

Puistola was drafted in the third round in 2019 by the Hurricanes. The 22-year-old winger has had a breakout campaign in Finland, scoring 15 goals and 38 points in 56 games. His exclusive rights are set to expire June 1, which would make him an unrestricted free agent.
