EDMONTON, AB -After making a name for himself as part of the University of Wisconsin Badgers men's hockey program, centre Dylan Holloway is looking to do the same with the program President of Hockey Operations & General Manager Ken Holland is building with the Edmonton Oilers.
The 14th-overall selection in the 2020 NHL Draft notched 11 goals and 35 points over 23 outings with the Badgers in the 2019-20 season. The 2021 Hobey Baker Award nominee also represented Team Canada at the 2021 World Junior Championships, scoring one goal and one assist as the Canucks earned the silver medal in Edmonton. Holloway later headed to California, joining the American Hockey League's Bakersfield Condors and witnessing the club capture the John D. Chick Trophy as Pacific Division champions.
The power forward made big moves during the '20-21 season, climbing from the college ranks to the pro level. Although he didn't get into AHL game action, Holloway will look to continue that incline as he advances up the Oilers prospect pipeline in '21-22.
