Re: Broberg has Permission and is Seeking a Trade from Oilers
At the end of the day, Broberg hasnt played well enough to force Holland's (and the coach's) hand to play him more. The left side of Nurse, Ekholm and Kulak is pretty well set and the 7th guy, usually Desharnais, is a different type of player than Broberg so it's not like you can take Vinny out and put Broberg in and expect the same things, and that's when the Oilers go 11 and 7, which they dont do often anyway.
Just send him to the AHL, tell him he needs to work on certain parts of his game that are holding him back and let him do just that. When an injury happens, if he's played well enough in the AHL, he will get brought back up. You cant send him down there, telling him he will be back if an injury occurs. Make him earn his recall.
