Confirmed with Link: Oilers Do Not Match Broberg ($4.58M X2) & Holloway ($2.29M x 2) Offer Sheets | Oilers acquire STL 3rd '28 & Paul Fischer for Futures
- Thread starter Myride
- Start date
4.5 x2 for Broberg and 2.2 x2 for holloway. All we would get is a 2nd for Broberg as well. Crazy!
From the Blues website; Broberg, 23, has played 81 games for the Oilers over the last three seasons, registering two goals and 11 assists, after being selected in the first round (No. 8 overall) in the 2019 NHL Draft. The Orebro, Sweden, native has also played in 20 career playoff games for Edmonton, including 10 games during their run to the 2024 Stanley Cup Final in which he posted two goals and an assist. The offer to Broberg is for a two-year contract at $4,580,917 per year, the maximum offer that would require a second-round draft pick as compensation.
Holloway, 22, has participated in 89 games for the Oilers since entering the league in 2022-23 as a former first-round pick (No. 14 overall) in the 2020 NHL Draft. He tallied nine goals and nine assists during those two seasons. The Calgary, Alberta, native and University of Wisconsin product has also played 26 career playoff games, including 25 during Edmonton’s journey to the 2024 Stanley Cup Final in which he contributed five goals and two assists. The offer to Holloway is for a two-year contract at $2,290,457 per year, the maximum offer that would require a third-round draft pick as compensation.

This is a nasty move by St. Louis. I suspect they match on Holloway but that Broberg OS is etremely problematic. To make it work they would have to move Ceci and pretty much know that Kane was LTIR for the season.
Bowman is going to earn his money fast or he will be starting off with a big hole to dig out of.

Let's see what our new GM pulls out of his a** now.
Will be his first test in many people's eyes.

Just move Ceci and Kane. You can’t lose players to offer sheets.

Anyone know if these offersheets have been signed by Holloway broberg? Or are at Louis saying they have offersheeeted them and waiting for descion? Or does the 7 days start now?
I don't think they have a real option but to LTIR Kane and shed Ceci.....and imo thats what he needs to do.

Sounds like they are signed otherwise we would never hear about them.
So much for jeff Jackson super off season. Really dropped the ball on this one. No way can we match the broberg deal. Can't throw 4 Mill at a guy in hoping he earns it when you're cap strapped
Smart move by St Louis, these players are worth far more than the 2nd/3rd we'd get back. We don't know what happened behind the scenes but it seems like a big f*** up by management to have gotten to this point.

The wording I’m seeing isnt so clear, all I see is blues GM saying they’ve tendered the offersheets to the two players and no clarity to if they’re signed or not. But yes most times you don’t hear about these things
TSN only saying offersheeted. No news if signed by either but did state 7 days starting now.
Blues website blowing up already.
If they announce it, it is because they signed it.
Montreal offersheeted Point before Aho a few years back, but Point did not sign it.

Broberg would be foolish not to sign that, but it could well be a mistake for Holloway.

The Blues aren't trading for their own picks and releasing a press release if the players didn't sign an offer sheet.

They are only made public if they are signed.
Oil need to find a way to match both of these.
You cannot let Broberg go for a 2nd round draft pick.

Short of Jeff Jackson putting a gun to the head of these players and forcing them to sign smaller contracts that you would prefer, I’m not really sure what he was supposed to do here.

It was revealed that Montreal approached Point but he was not interested, there was no offer sheet which is why you don't know what the terms were.
Smaller contracts like i prefer? How about contracts they are worth. Nither player is worth what they were just offered. You think inl these players new these lucrative deals would be offered so held out on edmonton?
