2025 Fantasy Outlook
Holtz had trouble getting into and staying in the Golden Knights' lineup in 2024-25, racking up just 12 points over 53 regular-season appearances. He also didn't play during the postseason. Vegas is always a big player in trades and signings, so Holtz may struggle to crack the lineup again in 2025-26, and even if he plays regularly, he projects as a bottom-six forward. One sign of hope is Holtz's 5.8 shooting percentage last year, which is virtually guaranteed to improve if he gets enough ice time. At 23 years old, a breakout year is possible for the seventh overall pick in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft, but his situation makes it unlikely. Read Past Outlooks

Pots goal, adds assist
RWVegas Golden Knights
January 17, 2026
Holtz scored a goal, added an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Predators.
ANALYSIS
Holtz tied the game at 1-1 in the second period and set up a Cole Reinhardt tally in the third. This was Holtz's second multi-point effort in his last eight games, but he's also been scratched four times in that span. The 23-year-old has mostly seen bottom-six minutes when in the lineup, which has limited his production. He's up to two goals, three helpers, 19 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through 17 appearances. Until Holtz can secure more playing time, he's a poor option for most fantasy formats.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Holtz's reward for his first full NHL campaign -- one in which he racked up 16 goals and 12 assists over 82 games with the Devils -- was a trade to the Golden Knights during the offseason. It's expected to be a fairly lateral move, as both teams have established top-six groups and Holtz has yet to do enough to prove himself anything more than a depth option. That could change, as he's also a 22-year-old winger who's just four years removed from being drafted seventh overall. He'll be an option in deeper fantasy formats with standard scoring, but those in shallower leagues will want to wait and see how much his game grows in Vegas.
Holtz appeared in just 33 total games a season ago, splitting time between the Devils (three goals, four points in 19 games) and their AHL affiliate in Utica (six goals, 11 points in 14 games). The former No. 7 overall pick in 2020, Holtz is a pure sniper with a cannon of a shot, but he's not of much use in a bottom-six role and there's simply no room for the Swede to earn significant minutes for a legitimate Stanley Cup contender in New Jersey at the moment. Holtz is likely to begin the upcoming season back in the minors, but it wouldn't be surprising for him to earn more NHL time if the Devils have to deal with injuries.
