The Edmonton Oilers refused to match the offer sheets the St. Louis Blues sent out to Phillip Broberg and Dylan Holloway. Haley Taylor Simon talked about the craziness that took place in the hockey world. The news went public a week ago about the offer sheets, and the Oilers had until today to make a decision. With Edmonton’s cap space situation it came at no surprise that they weren’t able to match the offer sheets. Phillip Broberg and Dylan Holloway spoke to the Blues’ media about becoming the newest members of the Blues and what this week was like for them. Doug Armstrong also said some interesting things about the direction of this young team.

Was this a good move for the St. Louis Blues??
Great move
Brilliant move by Armstrong. And he gave them a bit more so they could save face. This would be one of the best trades in a decade. Broberg and Holloway for a second, two thirds and the tights to Fischer. Now the Blues definitely have the depth for a playoff push.
Size,speed,youth,good to great hands gives blues great depth now. No down side at this point plus springfield just got better with the overload of forwards now.
Good job blues
Sincerely
Vancouver
as a Oilers fan I'm pissed they didn't match either, this is a fleecing by the Blues GM
Jeff Jackson is blaming Holland for not signing both during last season, but if he hadn't re-signed Corey Perry he'd have had the cap space to sign both at numbers they were happy with before the offer sheets were made. If the Oilers value other teams over the hill players over their own prospects, who can blame the pair for taking better offers from a team that wanted them?
Hopefully they can live up to the pressure of the contracts, because they both definitely have promise.
ST. LOSERS have always been Oilers jock sniffers…. while ditching hall of famers. Hull, Oates, Pronger, Gretz, Fuhr Stevens, Joseph…. suxckers.
Broberg was suppose to see top 4 minutes this year.
