    This goes for players on the ice as well as off-ice aspects to the game. For the Edmonton Oilers, Dylan Holloway has provided great bang for their buck since his end of season recall from Bakersfield.

    Holloway has had a strong playoff performance so far this offseason. He has seven points in 22 postseason games, five of them are goals.

    He predominately played a bottom six role during the regular season. Lately in the playoffs he's been on Leon Draisaitl's wing. This has given the young forward a massive boost of confidence.

    He hasn't disappointed either. 

    For Game four he recorded his second multi-goal performance of this playoff campaign. He became the youngest Oilers' player to record a multi-goal game in the Stanley Cup Final.

    Holloway was 22-years and 266 days old for his Game four effort. The youngest Oilers' performance before that came with Craig Simpson, who was 23-years and 96 days old. The third youngest was the Great One himself, Wayne Gretzky. Gretzky was only 16 days older than Simpson when he recorded a multi-point Cup Final game.

    This is impressive company to keep for such a young player. He hasn't been dominating the scoresheet as much as Connor McDavid, but he is adding tremendous value to the team.
