According to Edmonton Oilers' reporter Jim Matheson, the Anaheim Ducks are showing interest in forward Jesse Puljujarvi, who has been on the block since the summer.

Matheson, who is an employee of The Edmonton Journal, had sent out several tweets in recent days letting it be known that Ducks general manager Pat Verbeek had been at a number of Oilers games, but until today didn't let it be known who he may be watching.
Things have never seemed to work out between the Oilers and Puljujarvi, and have gone even further south this season. Through 30 games, the Finnish winger has just one goal and six points. That said, having been taken fourth overall back in 2016, he still has plenty of potential, which would make sense for a rebuilding team like the Ducks to take a stab at him.
