Spend $8 million on the third line, $3 million on 3 depth forwards and $2 million on 2 depth defensemen.
They’re going to have to hope that Broberg and Holloway are good little soldiers for McDavid and take their puny qualifying offers. I’m guessing neither are at arb. rights yet and neither have really done enough to push back against the cheap deals anyways but occasionally there’s some good will shown on second contracts that the Oilers are in no position to hand out here. Just gonna piss off guys they need down the road.
