It certainly doesn't look like Bratt is someone NJD wants to pay big money to, so he makes sense as being available. Holtz is a big prize prospect that hasn't made his mark at the NHL yet, so I could see him being available - and ditto with their 2023 1st.

Well, you have to give to get. News at 11.
Holtz + 1st alone doesn't quite do it (since he's unproven at the NHL level). Bratt is probably preferred as a side piece to a deal for Calgary.
