The St. Louis Blues are looking to salary cap-strapped Edmonton to upgrade their roster. The Blues issued offer sheets on Tuesday to Oilers defenseman Philip Broberg and forward Dylan Holloway. The rarely used move leaves the Oilers seven days to match the Blues’ contract offers to the restricted free agents or opt to receive draft picks from St. Louis as compensation. St. Louis offered two years and $9.16 million to Broberg, while Holloway received a two-year, $4.58 million offer. The Oilers lost the Stanley Cup Final in seven games last season but are currently projected to be over the cap.
