Holden dished out two assists -- one on the power play -- in Tuesday's 4-3 win over Carolina.

EDGE Analysis

Holden added five blocked shots to his ledger, contributing on both ends in the upset win. The veteran blueliner has two goals and two assists during a surprising three-game point streak, but don't expect Holden to keep this pace up much longer -- his four points in this stretch match his total from his first 33 games this season.

Holden scored a goal, blocked three shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Monday's 4-1 win over the Devils.

EDGE Analysis

Holden put the Senators ahead at 7:54 of the second period, and they never looked back. It was the defenseman's second goal in as many games after he scored just once in the first 33 contests of the season. The 34-year-old's at six points, 38 shots on net, 61 hits, 47 blocks and a minus-3 rating in 35 outings overall. While the sudden uptick in offense is encouraging, Holden is unlikely to keep the surge going much longer as a more defensive presence in the lineup.

Holden scored a goal in a 4-1 loss to the Islanders on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Holden had not registered a point over his previous six games and had not scored a goal since all the way back on Dec. 7 against these same Islanders before scoring in this one. The blue liner has just five points in 34 games this season.

Holden agreed to terms on a one-year, $1.3 million contract extension with the Senators on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Holden has struggled to produce offensively this season with just four points in 30 games, a far cry from the player who once put up 34 points with the Rangers back in 2016-17. Without a spot on the power play, the 34-year-old Holden figures to continue being a bit player in the Sens' offense and therefore shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of fantasy value moving forward.

Holden recorded an assist, three hits, two blocked shots and two shots on goal in Monday's 3-2 shootout win over the Devils.

EDGE Analysis

Holden picked up just his second assist of the year on a Brady Tkachuk goal in the second period. The 34-year-old Holden has added 31 hits, 27 blocks, 15 shots on net and a minus-7 rating through 17 contests. The Canadian blueliner rarely racked up big scoring numbers -- the Senators will keep him in the lineup as a defensive presence and mentor to some of their younger defensemen.

Holden was activated off the NHL's COVID-19 protocols list Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Holden will likely be in the lineup when Ottawa returns to action Monday against the Avalanche. The 34-year-old defender has picked up one helper through 10 games this campaign.

Holden was placed in COVID-19 protocols Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Holden will join Austin Watson as the two Senators skaters on the COVID-19 list. The 34-year-old will need to produce two negative tests before Tuesday's tilt with Boston in order to get back in the lineup. The team recalled Erik Brannstrom in a corresponding move.

Holden and a 2022 third-round pick were traded by the Golden Knights to the Senators in exchange for Evgenii Dadonov on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Holden appeared in just 17 games with Vegas last season, picking up two helpers while averaging 15:51 of ice time per contest over that span. The Senators are pretty thin at defense, so Holden could be a bottom-pairing regular for Ottawa in 2021-22, but don't expect him to put up many points.

Holden scored a goal on three shots, doled out three hits and added a plus-2 rating in Monday's 4-1 win over the Canadiens in Game 1.

EDGE Analysis

Holden's scoring surge continued into the Stanley Cup Semifinals. He's now scored in back-to-back games and he's picked up seven points in 11 playoff contests overall. The defenseman has added 14 shots on net, 36 hits and a plus-5 rating while working in a bottom-four role.

Holden scored a goal, doled out four hits and blocked three shots in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Avalanche in Game 6.

EDGE Analysis

The Avalanche struck just 23 seconds into the game, but Holden provided a quick response at 1:15 of the first period. The defenseman has been unusually strong on offense with a goal and five assists in 10 playoff outings. He's added 11 shots on net, 33 hits and 12 blocked shots. Holden is likely to compete with Nicolas Hague for a third-pairing role going forward.
