That's tough.

Chronic debilitating shoulder issues.

I'm not going to say this is really going to inhibit success, but is Matthews a real leader? I always sort of got the impression Tavares tried, but the kids didn't want to listen.
Maybe with Berube its a fresh start and he'll rise to the occasion, but I'm not totally sold on Berube. Fingers crossed for an implosion

Funny how over the years Edmonton has been on both sides of a few offer sheets.

Im guessing Holloway is gone, Edmonton won't let Broberg go.
For a team who is struggling with the cap, I still don't see how Adams had no leverage and was in a worse spot to negotiate.

Has anyone ever tendered offer sheets to two players on the same team?

I'm thinking the exact opposite. At least Holloway's contract is a bit in line with his performance. Broberg would be WAY overpaid for what he's done, and Edmonton needs to watch every penny.
Damn.
The Blues are blowing up hockey's dead period in a big, big way.

Love what the Blues are doing. I wish more teams would incite chaos like this.
So tell EDM to match and we send them Joker and Krebs for Broberg and Holloway

I wonder how long it will be before Bauer offers the Zegras curve at retail...

You just don't see the bigger picture, there was no spot on the roster for Savoie, so he gets some development time in Edmonton and when he gets to RFA we get him back per offer sheet.

More like the Nurse contractDid Skinner and choosing Henrique over McLeod leave EDM vulnerable?
