Impact Holl has two goals, two shots on net and three blocked shots in three NHL outings with the Capitals this season. However, he hasn't earned a point in three AHL appearances this campaign. Holl's demotion could bode well for the availability of Matt Roy (lower body) for Tuesday's matchup against the Kings.
