Holland was cut from the Avalanche's training camp roster and sent to AHL Colorado on Wednesday, according to Corey Masisak of The Denver Post.

EDGE Analysis

Holland didn't play with any team last season, but he did record six assists in 15 games with Djurgardens IF of the SHL in 2021-22. The 32-year-old has 36 goals and 85 points in 266 career NHL appearances.

Holland signed a professional tryout agreement with the Avalanche on Tuesday, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Holland was last seen in the NHL in 2017-18 with the Rangers, when he posted four points in 23 games in a bottom-six role. He's since played in the AHL, Russia and Sweden, though he was not on any team for the 2022-23 campaign after logging six assists in 15 contests with Djurgardens IF of the SHL a year before. Given his time away from the NHL, it seems like Holland will be a long shot to earn a contract from the Avalanche, but he may be able to settle for a two-way deal in North America if he performs well in training camp.

Holland agreed to terms on a two-year contract with Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg (KHL) on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Drafted by the Ducks with the 15th overall pick in the 2009 NHL Draft, Holland saw action in just 29 games with the club before being traded to the Maple Leafs in 2013-14. The center peaked in Toronto, as he notched 25 goals and 38 helpers in four seasons with the Leafs. The 28-year-old's career would also include stints with the Coyotes and Rangers. Last season, Holland once again found himself switching organizations, as he was acquired from New York by the Blackhawks, but was never able to earn a call-up to Chicago. With his move overseas, it's probably the last time Holland will suit up in North America, and he figures to bring his NHL career to a close with 36 goals and 49 assists in 266 appearances.

Holland was traded to the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for Darren Raddysh on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Holland has spent all of this season at the AHL level and will now report to AHL Rockford. A first-round pick in 2009, the 28-year-old has just 85 points in 266 career NHL contests.

Holland was reassigned to AHL Hartford on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Holland usually requires at least a brief trip to the AHL each season. He's added 36 goals, 49 assists and 112 PIM over 266 career games between four NHL clubs.

Holland played for in the 2017-18 season.

EDGE Analysis

Holland began the campaign with AHL Laval -- Montreal's minor-league affiliate -- and posted 19 points in 20 games, but he was traded to the Rangers in November. With New York, he spent time with AHL Hartford (14 points, 16 games) before being called up to the Rangers and suiting up for 23 games. Holland averaged 12:24 of ice time in that span, and he notched one goal and three helpers. The Rangers have plenty of depth up the middle with Mika Zibanejad, Vladislav Namestnikov and Kevin Hayes, so Holland will likely fight for the fourth-line center position.

Holland was placed on waivers by the Rangers on Saturday, Elliotte Friedman of Hockey Night in Canada reports.

EDGE Analysis

Holland provided the team with some ice time with a number of the regulars unavailable due to injury or because they were linked to trade talks. With Chris Kreider available again for the club, HOlland will likely return to the minors if unclaimed.

Holland scored a goal and an assist in a 7-4 loss to the Flyers on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old only posted two points and no goals in his first 14 games with the Rangers, so to say the least, this was a breakout performance for the new member of the blue shirts. Prior to joining the Rangers, Holland had five goals and 11 points with the Coyotes, so he now has six scores and 15 points in 49 games overall this season.

Holland was recalled from AHL Hartford on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Holland was sent down as the Rangers went on break for All-Star Weekend, but now that they're back and prepping for a game Thursday, the pivot will make his return to the ranks of the big club. That said, the team is already carrying 12 healthy forwards, so there's no guaranteed role waiting for the Toronto native.

Holland was reassigned to AHL Hartford on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Holland accrued two assists and 10 shots on goal through six games in this NHL stint, but with the All-Star break on the horizon, his services won't be needed until Feb. 1 for a game against the Maple Leafs.
