Broberg was the No.8 overall pick in the 2019 draft and came over to North America this season after two years in the SHL. The 20-year-old blueliner had 13 points (3G / 10A) in 44 games with Skelleftea AIK last year and has picked up 10 assists in his first 13 AHL games with Bakersfield.

Slater Koekkoek was hurt on Thursday, so Broberg will join the team in Edmonton and could make his NHL debut on Saturday. The 2019 eighth overall pick has picked up 10 assists in 13 AHL games this season.

Sundqvist will play for the first time since March 19th. He suffered a torn ACL in his left knee in a collision with Kyle Clifford in a win over the Sharks that night. Oddly enough, Clifford was waived on Monday to make room for Sundqvist to be activated for tonight's game vs. Arizona.

Krug has missed the last five games while in COVID-19 protocol but will play tonight vs. the Coyotes. Krug had two goals and six assists (eight points) in nine games before entering protocol.
