Pretty much the going rate for this kind of player around his age.

The cap increases have been steep and its making deals look way more out of whack when in reality, the % of cap hit isnt much different.

This is a deal that could still age poorly. Still seems smarter to give the big money to guys before hitting their prime rather than after. Certainly a worthwhile gamble.

Not to mention a Masterton Trophy candidate for his triumph over Post E=NG Disorder.

When Edmonton isn’t fumbling roster decision, I wonder what they do with their spare 30 minutes a year.

Good for Broberg.

Hilariously bad asset management by the Oilers. They used the cap space for Broberg/Holloway to sign Arvidsson and Jeff Skinner. And they used the 2nd round compensation pick for the Broberg offer sheet to trade for Trent Frederic.

Stan Bowman selling the Broberg plan to Oilers executives
