A trade has just been made between the St. Louis Blues and Pittsburgh Penguins for draft picks, and immediately after the Blues offer sheeted two Oilers players.
Starting off with the trade, the Pittsburgh Penguins sent a 2025 2nd round pick and a 2026 5th round pick to the St. Louis Blues in exchange for a 2026 2nd round pick and a 2025 3rd round pick.
The reason the St. Louis Blues made this trade was because they had plans to offer sheet two players of the Edmonton Oilers, those being Dylan Holloway and Philip Broberg, as they remained unsigned restricted free agents (RFA) by the team.
