Puustinen scored a power-play goal in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Wild.
Scouting Report
Lacks optimum size for the National Hockey League, but he makes up for it with a terrific release and scoring instincts. Plays well with a playmaking center. Could stand to improve his defensive work. Must produce consistent offense in order to stick as an NHLer over time.
Long Range Potential: Diminutive but talented winger.
