Kevin Hoffman / USA TODAY Sports
Jesse Puljujarvi is off to Bakersfield.
The Edmonton Oilers announced Monday that the team has assigned the rookie winger to its AHL affiliate, the Bakersfield Condors.
Puljujarvi has appeared in 28 games this season, scoring one goal and seven assists, with his lone goal on the year coming in the season opener.
The Finnish forward was scratched for Edmonton's last two games and played just 3:27 in his last appearance, a game in which he saw just one shift after the opening period.
In another roster move on Monday, the Oilers also placed goaltender Jonas Gustavsson on waivers.
