Philip Broberg: our analysis
2025-26 season: 81 GP, 6 G, 28 A, 34 PTS, +14 +/-, 23:21 TOI. WAR 2.2 (17th of 325) · PAL 80, excellent.
In 2025-26, Philip Broberg, 25, posts a PAL Rating of 80 out of 100 (excellent), and his WAR of 2.2 ranks 17th among 325 regulars, in the top quarter.
His strengths: discipline (98, among the best in the league), penalty kill (90, among the best in the league) and possession (77, well above average). On the other hand, power play (6, among the weakest in the league) holds him back.
Breaking down his WAR (goals above average), his biggest contribution: EV offense (+3.6); his biggest cost: finishing (-1.3).
A slight dip from 2024-25, when his PAL was 83; his WAR, though, went from 2.2 to 2.2.
Contract-wise, his Value score of 75 (very good contract) weighs his output against what he costs: 50 is what that salary should buy.
Philip Broberg's story
Growing up in Örebro, Philip Broberg developed his early game within the Örebro HK organization before moving to AIK's J20 SuperElit squad for 2017–18. Those formative years set the foundation for a style that balances defensive positioning with a willingness to join the rush.
At 17 he stepped into professional hockey, skating for AIK in HockeyAllsvenskan during the 2018–19 season and collecting 9 points across 41 contests. He then signed a one-year deal with Skellefteå AIK to test himself in the SHL. His stock rose ahead of the 2019 NHL entry draft, where Edmonton selected him 8th overall; on 4 July 2019 he agreed to a three-year entry-level contract with the Oilers.
Instead of immediately crossing the Atlantic, Broberg remained in Sweden to continue his development with Skellefteå, including a loan spell following Edmonton's return-to-play phase. In 2020–21 he stayed in the SHL, recording 3 goals and 13 points in 44 regular-season games before being recalled to Edmonton and placed on the taxi squad in May 2021.
The 2021–22 campaign began in the AHL with the Bakersfield Condors. Broberg made his NHL debut on 20 November 2021 versus the Chicago Blackhawks, picking up an assist in a 5–2 victory. He appeared in 23 regular-season games for the Oilers that year, scored his first NHL goal in the latter half of the season, and dressed for one playoff game during Edmonton's run to the Western Conference Final.
In August 2024 his contract path shifted when the St. Louis Blues extended a two-year, US$4.58 million-per-year offer sheet; Edmonton chose not to match and Broberg was signed by St. Louis on 20 August, with a second-round pick awarded as compensation. Serving as an alternate captain for the Blues, he is defined by an all-around approach that pairs defensive responsibility with the confidence to contribute offensively.
