I feel like calling that a breakout season is spin on your part.
I definitely wouldn't have traded Holloway for Podkolzin. I also wouldn't have offered Holloway $2.3 million based on what he has done so far. I would have matched the offer sheet because I think Holloway has potential, but its far from certain he turns into the goods.
The Oilers traded Kostin away two years ago after he wanted $2 million for a slightly better season scoring wise than Holloway had this past season. There were a lot of fans disputing that one. We will have to wait and see how this one turns out.

You wouldn’t offer him $2.3M but would have matched the offer sheet and paid him $2.3M instead of taking two thirds?
