We start in Edmonton and more on the Broberg offer sheet. According to Elliott Freeman, things between him and the Oilers weren't great beforehand
0:11
despite his recent playoff performance. He confirmed that Broberg asked for a trade in December 2023 and added that he wasn't
0:17
convinced he ever changed his mind. Even knowing this, the Oilers are still looking at trade options for Sisi and Kulak so that
0:23
they can match the offer sheet. Next we move to Vancouver where Patrick Johnson of the province is speculating that the Canucks
0:29
could offer the Oilers a lifeline by taking on Kulak in exchange for Pullman's $2.5 million contract
0:35
He isn't expected to play in the NHL again so that would allow the Oilers to place him on LTIR without a salary cap penalty or giving up a first or second round pick
0:42
The Canucks have been looking for another Pukamu defenseman so this could be a win-win for both sides
0:47
And we finish in Boston where Freeman is reporting that Swainman and the Bruins are still far
0:51
away from signing a new deal. He says it's been challenging but they still have time to work something out before the
0:56
new season. And that's it for this edition of the News and Rumors Rundown
