Philip Broberg throws shade at the Edmonton Oilers in recent interview
The Edmonton Oilers are gearing up for tomorrow's matchup against the St. Louis Blues, but there's an added layer of drama to the game.
It's no secret by now that the Edmonton Oilers lost Philip Broberg and Dylan Holloway over the offseason due to being offer sheeted by the St. Louis Blues.
Since then, Philip Broberg has emerged as one of the best blue-liners on the team, playing quality minutes in a shut-down role.
Although Broberg's departure from the team devastated the fanbase, Philip Broberg couldn't be happier with the change, as he openly admitted in a recent interview.
Philip Broberg recently sat down with The Hockey News and, when he was asked if he regrets leaving Edmonton -- he gave a blunt response.

Although Broberg somewhat sugar coated his statement, there's obviously no love lost between him and the Oilers franchise.
This is further emphasized by Oilers CEO Jeff Jackson's recent comments, stating that the Edmonton Oilers failed Philip Broberg due to a systemic issue with their player development.

While it's possible the Oilers failed Philip Broberg, he was given ample opportunities to secure a spot on the roster, but he couldn't solidify his role until it was already too late.
