Mason McDonald, Hunter Smith, Tyler Parsons, William. Strogmen, Toppi Ronni. Trade any of those guys for Holloway. Might say the same about Basha but too early to say

I suppose one could argue separately how far above 'replacement' level either player was, but for sure their reasons for being out of the team plans are both far from garden variety
(not necessarily disputing your broader point about the value of a 2nd round pick) but as pure hockey draft selections I think personally they 'hit' on those 2 players
