Beginning in the 2016–17 season, Holloway spent parts of three seasons with the Okotoks Oilers of the Alberta Junior Hockey League (AJHL), finishing second in league scoring with 40 goals and 88 points in 53 games in 2018–19.[1] The NHL Central Scouting Bureau rated Holloway as the 12th-best North American skater eligible for selection in 2020.[2]

Holloway played collegiate hockey for the Wisconsin Badgers of the NCAA's Big Ten Conference.[2]

On October 6, 2020, at the 2020 NHL Entry Draft, Holloway was selected by the Edmonton Oilers with the 14th overall pick.[3] In his sophomore season with the Badgers, Holloway added 11 goals and 24 assists in 23 games, ranking fifth in NCAA scoring and fourth in points per game.

On April 16, 2021, Holloway opted to conclude his collegiate career, by signing a three-year, entry-level contract with the Edmonton Oilers.[4]

Holloway had surgery on his wrist in March 2021, followed by a different surgery on the same wrist in September 2021, which will require at least three months of recovery time; as of December 2021, he has not yet played his first game as a professional, with the Edmonton Oilers nor any of their pro farm teams.[5]
