2026-11-05 • NHLForecasts

Alexander Holtz has a point in seven of his eight games for the Henderson Silver Knights, Vegas's AHL affiliate. He has six goals and six assists. His 1.50 points per game is tied for third among the 651 AHL skaters with at least five games, level with Lehigh Valley's Alex Bump. The two ahead of him, Providence's Mikey Eyssimont and Toronto's Vinni Lettieri, are 30 and 31.

A five-day recall

Vegas recalled Holtz on October 21. He played twice for the Golden Knights: 14:04 and an assist against St. Louis, then 9:29 against Columbus. He was back in Henderson on October 26 and has four points in three games since.

Filled squares are goals and outlined squares are assists. The shaded stretch is his time with Vegas.

The AHL has never been the question

Holtz has always scored at this level. In 2021-22, the season after New Jersey drafted him seventh overall, he had 51 points in 52 games for Utica. The NHL has been harder. He scored 16 goals in 82 games for the Devils in 2023-24, then 4 in 53 and 3 in 28 over his two seasons in Vegas.

AHL points per game leaders through November 5, skaters with five or more games.

What to watch

Six goals on 30 shots is a 20 percent shooting rate, and that will come down. His shot volume is the better sign: 3.75 a game, eighth in the league. He turns 25 on January 23.
