Elliotte Friedman revealed that the Edmonton Oilers refused a trade offer from the St. Louis Blues for Dylan Holloway and Philip Broberg at the last trade deadline. The Edmonton Oilers are currently in hot water as they must make a decision on the two offer sheets made by the St. Louis Blues for Dylan Holloway and Philip Broberg. If they want to keep both players, they'll need to match the Oilers' offers: $2.3M for Holloway and $4.6M for Broberg. Stan Bowman, the Oilers' new general manager, must explore all his options to minimize the Oilers' losses. This could all be happening for a simple reason: Doug Armstrong, the Blues' general manager, was good friends with Ken Holland, who was fired in Edmonton a few months ago. At the past deadline, Armstrong made a trade offer to Holland for both Holloway and Broberg, which was refused. Holland decided to go with Adam Henrique and Sam Carrick in a deal made with the Anaheim Ducks. Back then, the Blues showed interest in the two players, and Pavel Buchnevich's name came up in the discussions: <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/oilersaccess/status/1823771177384317106'> </a></blockquote></div> <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/oilersaccess/status/1823771181750870132'> </a></blockquote></div> Because Holland refused that trade, the Oilers must now deal with the possibility of seeing both players walk away from the team with only a couple of draft picks in compensation.
