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

Holtz is with the Golden Knights on a professional tryout agreement for training camp despite remaining unsigned as a restricted free agent, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
Holtz made 53 regular-season appearances during his first year with the Golden Knights in 2024-25, totaling four goals, eight assists, 39 hits, 15 blocked shots and 10 PIM while averaging 11:35 of ice time. Although he hasn't yet reached an agreement with the team for the 2025-26 regular season, he'll be able to spend time with Vegas during training camp.

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.
