According to several very solid sources, they are officially trading their young defenseman Philip Broberg, drafted 8th overall in 2019.
Interesting! We also know, of course, that the Oilers want to conclude a trade to get reinforcement in front of the net, and we also know that many rumors have linked them to the Montreal Canadiens and Jake Allen.
Broberg, 22 years old, is a 6-foot-4, 212-pound defenseman who was drafted 8th overall (1st round) in 2019 by the Oilers.
He has amassed 30 points in 42 AHL games, a solid haul for a young rear-guard, and 11 points in 79 NHL games.
