Jesse PulkinnenNoteSo tall.Brian FogartyFinland vs Czechia (WJC 2024)1/5/20244/2/202410302
Jesse PulkinnenNoteCollects the puck behind his own net, comes around, circles back under pressure. He doesn't have the quickness to escape pressure, but his reach allows him to keep the puck out of reach and then go off the glass with the puck to clear the zone.Brian FogartyFinland vs Czechia (WJC 2024)1/5/20244/2/202410302
Jesse PulkinnenNoteHe has a tight turning radius for such a tall player.Brian FogartyFinland vs Czechia (WJC 2024)1/5/20244/2/202410302
Jesse PulkinnenNoteUsing his long strides to generate good speed, goes hard to win the puck race deep in the offensive zone. Passes to the left winger and then cycles back to the point.Brian FogartyFinland vs Czechia (WJC 2024)1/5/20244/2/202410302
Jesse PulkinnenNoteWilling to be the first player in to retrieve pucks dumped into the offensive zone.Brian FogartyFinland vs Czechia (WJC 2024)1/5/20244/2/202410302
Jesse PulkinnenNoteToo many times he feathers the puck aound the corner as an outlet option. This seldom works for him.Brian FogartyFinland vs Czechia (WJC 2024)1/5/20244/2/202410302
Jesse PulkinnenSummaryQuick to activate up ice, and although his first couple of steps are nothing special, he can build speed fairly quickly and win long races. He shows a lot of scoring drive and wants to be involved in the action at both ends. He needs to work on his defense and puck management in his own end, but his up-ice abilities are fun to watch.Brian FogartyFinland vs Czechia (WJC 2024)1/5/20244/2/202410302
