The way these types of workflows work in Sharepoint Online are through sites there. You would create a calendar associated with your group, e.g. Project A Calendar in Project Management site. Planner is also linked to a given site (team or otherwise).
And then you can add Sharepoint calendars to Outlook easily. Just go to the calendar in the web browser, and click on Add to Outlook or somesuch (not using this functionality at this job so I can't look it up).

This. ^^^^...I did create a Drafting Group with all drafters in it and it created a SharePoint Page, OneNote Page and a shared group calendar.

I'm now wondering - even if you did have Outlook 2016, would that way you created the calendar provide a calendar in Outlook 2016?
I'm unfamiliar with group calendars as you've created it currently in O365.
Outlook 2016 does show O365 groups.
All in all ,they decided to let each user manually share with the project manager and he will view their calendars one by one...I'll talk them into O365 Groups one day...

I don't know if this is the right way (but I've found a few articles that do it this way online as well) but I create a user called xzy calendar. I then give access to that calendar to everyone who needs it. tada - all uses have access to the calendar in Outlook.
