The St. Louis Blues have made headlines during the 2024 off-season by signing Philip Broberg and Dylan Holloway to offer sheets, which the Edmonton Oilers ultimately chose not to match. Holloway has since emerged as a top-six forward, while Broberg has found success on the Blues' blue line, transitioning from a struggling defender in Edmonton to a key contributor in St. Louis.

This season, Broberg has hit new offensive heights, setting personal bests with four goals and 13 assists in just 43 games, a significant improvement from his previous season's totals of a single goal and seven assists. The two-year, $9.16 million contract for Broberg is quickly turning into a savvy investment for the Blues, especially considering the temporary cost of a second-round draft pick in 2025 as compensation.
