St. Louis Blues Shake NHL with Offer Sheets to Oilers' Broberg and Holloway
Blues tender rare offer sheets to restricted free agents, forcing Oilers into a tight cap situation.
- Broberg and Holloway signed two-year deals, with Edmonton having seven days to match the offers.
- If Oilers don't match, they will receive a second-round pick for Broberg and a third-round pick for Holloway.
- Blues' move is aimed at injecting young talent into their roster, which has struggled in recent seasons.
- Offer sheets are uncommon in the NHL, adding drama and strategic complexity to team management.
- Edmonton faces significant cap challenges, potentially impacting their ability to retain key players.
