The NHL world is still reeling after the news that the St. Louis Blues tendered offer sheets to Edmonton Oilers’ restricted free agents Philip Broberg and Dylan Holloway. Offer sheets can be a tricky way for general managers to benefit from another team’s desperation. The Oilers are pressed against the salary cap, so the short-term, multi-million dollar offers have forced general manager (GM) Stan Bowman to reallocate funds. Cody Ceci’s $3.25 million cap hit has already been shipped to San Jose, giving the Oilers some breathing room. Bowman has until Aug. 20 to match the offers.

The Edmonton Oilers were involved in two trade yesterday, though one was not what anybody had envisioned. That move saw them acquire Vasily Podkolzin from the Vancouver Canucks. Going the other way is a fourth-round pick in the 2025 draft. The 23-year-old has yet to find his footing at the NHL level, but was taken 10th overall in 2019. That situation isn’t all that far off for another Oilers forward who has been in the news a lot lately and may soon be part of a new organization.

Following a trade to land Vasily Podkoslin and another trade to send Cody Ceci to the San Jose Sharks, the Edmonton Oilers are a couple of minor moves away from being able to match the offer sheets tendered to Philip Broberg and Dylan Holloway.
