Dishes pair of helpers in win Holmstrom recorded two assists and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Sharks.

Impact Holmstrom set up Anthony Duclair's power-play tally in the first period and an even-strength goal by Anders Lee in the third. This was Holmstrom's second two-assist effort over four games in March. The 23-year-old winger has quietly been one of the Islanders' top players this season, earning 34 points, 69 shots on net, 39 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating over 55 appearances. It's not enough production for all fantasy formats, but he's at least worth considering in many of them -- the only real knock on his game is a lack of shot volume.

Produces two assists in win Holmstrom logged two assists in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Predators.

Impact Holmstrom helped out on both of Brock Nelson's tallies in the second period. The first one was a shorthanded goal, and the second stood as the game-winner. Holmstrom had been limited to one goal over his previous seven outings, and his last multi-point effort was Feb. 1 against the Lightning. Despite the recent downturn on offense, he remains in a top-six role. The 23-year-old winger is up to 32 points (three on the power play, three shorthanded), 65 shots on net, 38 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating over 52 appearances. Holmstrom's increased success as a defensive winger has helped him maintain a prominent place in the lineup, though he's also enjoying a career year on offense.

Scores in Friday's loss Holmstrom scored a goal in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Jets.

Impact Holmstrom has done well to maintain a middle-six role lately, earning five goals and three assists over 10 contests since he returned from an upper-body injury. The winger doesn't see much power-play time, which is likely to limit his ability to sustain his recent scoring pace. He's now at 30 points, 54 shots on net and a plus-7 rating over 47 outings this season.

Holmstrom's play has taken a step up in 2024-25 -- he's now at 29 points, 53 shots on net, 32 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating over 44 appearances in a middle-six role. With how he's played lately, the 23-year-old can be considered to fill a depth role in fantasy.

Stays hot with goal Holmstrom scored a goal in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Flyers.

Impact Holmstrom opened the scoring at 10:02 of the second period, and his tally stood as the game-winner. He has four goals and an assist over six outings since he returned from an upper-body injury. The Islanders have a lot of players competing for bottom-six minutes, but Holmstrom has bought himself some separation from the pack with his strong play recently. The winger is at 13 goals, 27 points, 50 shots on net, 30 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating across 43 contests this season.

The New York Islanders visit the Philadelphia Flyers after Simon Holmstrom scored two goals in the Islanders' 5-2 win over the Colorado Avalanche

JANUARY 30, 2025 • Associated Press

Three points against Avs Holmstrom scored two goals and added an assist in Tuesday's 5-2 win over Colorado.

Impact All three points came in the third period as the Islanders broke open a 1-1 tie. Holmstrom hadn't had a multi-point performance since Dec. 21, and his middle-six role and lack of consistent power-play time makes his production erratic. On the season, the 2019 first-round pick has 12 goals and a career-high 26 points through 42 appearances.

Impact Holmstrom's shortie at 2:57 of the second period stood as the game-winner. This was his second game back after he missed seven contests due to an upper-body injury. The 23-year-old forward has 10 goals, 13 helpers, 45 shots on net, 28 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 39 appearances. He's emerging as a decent two-way forward, and he needs just two more points to match his production from 75 regular-season outings in 2023-24.

Could return Saturday Head coach Patrick Roy said Friday that Holmstrom (upper body) could return to action against the Sharks on Saturday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.

Impact Holmstrom has been dealing with his upper-body injury since the end of December, but he could return to action following a seven-game absence. Over 37 appearances this year, he's logged nine goals, 13 assists, 28 blocked shots, 10 hits and six PIM while averaging 16:31 of ice time.

JANUARY 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Placed on injured reserve Holmstrom (upper body) was designated for injured reserve Tuesday, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.

Impact Holmstrom has already missed the required number of days assuming the team used a retroactive designation, so this move shouldn't impact his recovery timeline. Still, it seems unlikely the 23-year-old winger will be in action versus the Knights on Thursday and probably should be expected to miss both legs of the Isles' two-game road trip.

JANUARY 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Remains day-to-day Holmstrom (upper body) didn't practice Saturday and likely won't be an option to play against Boston on Sunday., Cory Wright of the Islanders' official site reports.

Impact Holmstrom is still day-to-day and will miss his third straight game. He has registered nine goals, 22 points, 42 shots on net and 28 blocked shots through 37 appearances this season. Due to Holmstrom's absence, Pierre Engvall will presumably remain in Sunday's lineup.

JANUARY 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Thursday Holmstrom (upper body) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Maple Leafs.

Impact Holmstrom sustained an upper-body injury Sunday against the Penguins and will be unavailable for a second consecutive game. Pierre Engvall will likely continue to suit up against the Maple Leafs, while Holmstrom remains day-to-day, and his next opportunity to suit up will be on the road against Boston on Sunday.

JANUARY 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Contending with injury Holmstrom is day-to-day with an upper-body injury, the team announced Tuesday.

Impact Holmstrom will miss his first game of the season due to the injury. The Swedish forward is on his way to posting new career highs in goals, assists and points in 2024-25. Pierre Engvall, who has been a healthy scratch in four consecutive games, will draw into the lineup Tuesday against Toronto.

Snags assist in win Holmstrom posted an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Penguins.

Impact Holmstrom has two goals and five helpers over his last six contests. That warm stretch coincides with more consistent top-six minutes and a spot on the power play. The winger is up to 22 points, 41 shots on net, 27 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 36 appearances this season. Holmstrom's rise hasn't exactly been meteoric, but he does enough of the little things right to keep this spot, and the offense is sufficient to fill a depth spot in fantasy.
