Puljujarvi is an RFA and at least a young, big, strong, fast, middle six forward who fore checks effectively and plays a solid 200-foot game. He has a role with the Oilers, the questions regarding his future with the team are founded on cryptic statements made by Ken Holland and concern that JP's contract demands may not align with the value Edmonton assigns to him.
Holl's value to Edmonton would be dependent on whether Holland is able to trade Tyson Barrie, sign Brett Kulak, and/or find another veteran RD capable of playing a depth role for the Oilers on a value contract. He is a 30-year-old depth defenseman in the final year of his contract. In Edmonton, Holl would likely play behind Ceci and Bouchard, supporting Broberg and Neimenlainen and perhaps getting some reps on the PK.
There is a significant imbalance between the central pieces of your trade proposal. Toronto's 2023 4th round draft pick and a depth prospect do not address that imbalance because they do nothing to help the Oilers now, and quite possibly never will.
