Hindsight can hurt.
During the 2016 NHL Entry Draft, Ken Holland traded back on the Red Wings’ first-round pick, moving Pavel Datsyuk’s contract while securing an additional second-round pick in the process. With the extra picks, he drafted Dennis Cholowski and Filip Hronek and used the extra cap space to sign Frans Nielsen. This move gave the Arizona Coyotes the chance to draft Jakob Chychrun, who was regarded as one of the better defensemen of the draft.
Five years have passed since the draft. In that time, Filip Hronek has shown great potential as a defenseman, Cholowski has split his season with the Griffins and the Wings, and Nielsen is, well, Nielsen.
