Holland said that he is interested in signing forward Anton Slepyshev and has made him an offer – Reid Wilkins.
Jim Matheson tweeted that Slepyshev’s contract offer was probably between $1 and 1.4 million. It’s unlikely that he’d offer the same $1.5 million that he gave to Josh Archibald.
Daniel Nugent-Bowman notes that if Philip Broberg doesn’t make the Oilers next year, he’ll head back to Sweden according to Holland.
There currently isn’t an international agreement but the Oilers continue to talk with the agents for Markus Niemelainen and Filip Berglund about signing an NHL contract.
