We're down to the final hours.

The start of the NHL's 2022-23 schedule is just two days away, and the league's 32 teams are making roster tweaks to ensure the best seasons possible.

Among agenda items are fielding late-stage trade offers and eyeing contracts that'll ensure the best mix for the short and long term.

And given that potential for personnel volatility, it's a guarantee that rumors will fly.

Puljujarvi on His Way out of Edmonton

The Jesse Puljujarvi clock is ticking. Loudly.

Edmonton drafted the 6'4", 201-pounder fourth overall in 2016 and certainly hoped the Finnish winger would approach the level of performance since put up by No. 1 overall pick Auston Matthews, or even Patrik Laine and Pierre-Luc Dubois at Nos. 2 and 3.

And the volume has only increased with the training camp buzz surrounding 2020 draft pick Dylan Holloway, who scored three goals while getting top-six time alongside Leon Draisaitl on Monday night.

Add to it that Puljujarvi carries a $3 million cap hit for the cash-strapped Oilers for 2022-23, while Holloway is signed to an entry-level deal that'll pay $925,000 for two more years.

He's not wrong.
