Holmberg has been recalled from the AHL after recording two points (1G / 1A) in two games with the Marlies. The Maple Leafs' sixth-round pick from the 2018 NHL Entry Draft will likely serve as a depth forward for the team as they enter the second game of a season-long, five-game road trip.
Holmberg had a shot to make the Maple Leafs' opening roster after putting up five goals, eight assists, 27 SOG, and 18 PIMs in 37 games played in his rookie season in 2022-23 but has been assigned to the Toronto Marlies (AHL) to the 2023-24 campaign. The 24-year-old right-winger was Toronto's 2018 sixth-round pick (156th overall) and should find his way back to the Maple Leafs at some point this season.
Holmberg had five goals, 13 points, 27 SOG, and 18 PIMs through 37 games with Toronto in 2022-23 and has signed a wo-year, $1.6 Million extension ($800,000 AAV). The 24-year-old was Toronto's 2018 sixth round pick (156th overall) and made his NHL debut as a rookie last season.
Holmberg had five goals, six assists, eight PIMs and a -2 plus/minus through 22 games with the Toronto Marlies (AHL) and has been recalled Monday. The 23-year-old returns to the Maple Leafs, where he had five goals, 13 points, 26 SOG and 14 PIMs through 36 games played earlier in the season.
With the Toronto Maple Leafs off until Wednesday, Pontus Holmberg has been loaned to the Toronto Marlies (AHL). He should find himself back with the big club in no time, where he has five goals, eight assists, 22 SOG, and 12 PIMs across 35 games in his rookie campaign.
Holmberg returns to the Maple Leafs where he has five goals, eight assists, 20 SOG, 12 PIMs and a +2 plus/minus through 33 games this season. He was returned to the Toronto Marlies (AHL) over the all-star break to stay active and get a few games while the Maple Leafs were off.
The Maple Leafs waived Dryden Hunt on Sunday to clear the way for Holmberg, who has 11 points (4G / 7A) in 28 games with the Maple Leafs this season. In 12 AHL games, the 23-year-old has six points (2G / 4A).
Holmberg will be recalled for a second time this season after getting a small cup of coffee with the Maple Leafs earlier in the season, playing one game where he collected two shots over 10:01 TOI. The 23-year-old has a goal and four assists with Toronto (AHL) prior to his call up to the Leafs.
Holmberg made his NHL debut on Nov 2nd vs Philadelphia playing only 10:01 TOI in his only action with the Maple Leafs so far this season. He was sent down to the Toronto Marlies (AHL) Tuesday as Jordie Benn was activated from the injured reserve.
