  • Maple Leafs' Pontus Holmberg: Sitting out Tuesday

    Holmberg (illness) is expected to be a healthy scratch against Philadelphia on Tuesday, according to David Alter of The Hockey News.

    Holmberg missed the last four games dealing with an illness but skated with the regulars as an extra ahead of Tuesday's matchup. He might still be regaining his strength, but at this point, he is probably healthy enough to play if called upon. Holmberg has two goals, six points, 23 shots on net, 25 blocked shots and 14 hits across 32 appearances this season.

  • Maple Leafs' Pontus Holmberg: Still sidelined against Isles

    Holmberg (illness) will not be in the lineup versus the Islanders on Thursday, per NHL.com.

    Holmberg was a healthy scratch in three of seven games prior to getting sick, so he was far from a lock to suit up Thursday even if he was fully fit. When he has played, the 25-year-old winger has struggled to produce, as he is currently stuck in a six-game pointless streak during which he managed a meager three shots.

    Holmberg (illness) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Islanders.

  • Maple Leafs' Pontus Holmberg: Ties game with shortie

    Holmberg scored a shorthanded goal in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Devils.

    Holmberg tied the game midway through the third period, helping the Maple Leafs steal this contest that the Devils dominated. This was Holmberg's first goal since Nov. 20, but he has five points over his last 11 outings. For the season, the 25-year-old forward is up to two goals, four assists, 20 shots on net, 20 blocked shots, 17 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 26 appearances in a mostly defensive role.

    Holmberg's offense has come around with four points over his last seven games, including an assist in each of the last two contests. The 25-year-old was on the second line again Monday, which likely explains his recent success. He's up to five points, 18 shots on net, 17 blocked shots and 15 PIM through 22 outings. Fantasy managers can wait to see if his upticks in ice time and scoring stick.

  • Maple Leafs' Pontus Holmberg: Deposits empty-netter

    Holmberg scored an empty-net goal and blocked three shots in Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Golden Knights.

    This was one of Holmberg's best efforts of the year, and he was rewarded with a season-high 17:40 of ice time. The 25-year-old forward has typically played in a more defensive role, but he was on the second line and stepped up to the challenge Wednesday. Overall, he has three points, 16 shots on net, 15 blocked shots, 15 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 18 appearances. He may be worth a look as a streaming option versus Utah on Sunday if Auston Matthews (upper body), Matthew Knies (upper body) and Max Domi (lower body) all remain out.

The 25-year-old has been an occasional healthy scratch this season and is unlikely to see anything more than a bottom-six role. He has two assists, 15 shots on net, 10 blocked shots, 15 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 16 outings.

  • Maple Leafs' Pontus Holmberg: Produces helper in win

    Holmberg notched an assist and blocked three shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Devils.

    Holmberg made an early impact, setting up linemate Max Pacioretty for the opening goal at 8:18 of the first period. While more of a defensive forward, Holmberg produced 30 points over 91 contests across his first two seasons. The 25-year-old has filled the third-line center spot to begin 2024-25, though he's unlikely to produce enough in any given category to earn much fantasy interest.

  • Maple Leafs' Pontus Holmberg: Scores in loss

    Holmberg scored a goal on three shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Red Wings.

    Holmberg was given a top-line look amid a roster shuffle in response to Saturday's collapse versus Colorado. He saw 12:57 of ice time Sunday and logged the opening goal early in the second period. Holmberg has picked up four points over the last five games, so a promotion in the lineup doesn't come as a surprise. He has two goals, five points, 17 shots on net and a plus-3 rating through 15 appearances this season, mainly as a bottom-six player.
