Why Trading Alexander Holtz Makes NO SENSE (And Why He'll Thrive In Vegas)
Alexander Holtz and Akira Schmid have been traded from the New Jersey Devils to the Vegas Golden Knights for Paul Cotter and a 2025 3rd round draft pick. This has left many Devils fans upset, because the addition of Holtz in this deal means losing a young and incredibly talented scoring winger who had promise to take a leap under the new head coach Sheldon Keefe. In today’s video, I want to highlight the shortsightedness of this trade and unpack why moving on from Holtz this early could be such a mistake for New Jersey and why I believe he will break out in Vegas.

Jack & Luke Hughes Are Revolutionizing the New Jersey Devils Offense
Переглядів 3778 місяців тому
Despite some early goaltending and defensive struggles, the Devils offense remains an absolute wagon this season, especially on the powerplay. A big reason for that success is the electric play of the Hughes brothers. In today's video, I breakdown how Jack and Luke have been creating consistently elite offense for the Devils with some film analysis from the season so far. I must state that in N...

    As a VGK fan I worry about Bruce Cassidy benching him just like Lindy Ruff in NJ because I think they are cut from the same cloth. But I hope I’m wrong. Cutter was very good on the 4th line producing goals at even strength and being physical on the boards so he will be missed and NJ fans will love his energy and toughness.

    Holtz has an NHL shot. Unfortunately he can't skate so it doesn't really matter. Devs gave him every opportunity to improve that part of his game and it never happened. good luck to him but in the modern NHL there's no room for skill players that can't keep up

    So i love the video bro, i disagree with the bad assest management part. Holtz will be great is this league no doubt. But, the devils are currently stacked with high power offensive players and most importantly high elite defenseman (luke hughes and simon nemec) who are still on their elc's. Unfortunately holtz didnt sprout as fast as they wanted but Mercer who was picked the same draft class as him did and with the tinelime ofnthe Devils Mercer is more important due to his grit as seen in the 22/23 season. I as was every devils fan shocked by the trade and i do agree that it has a higher possibility of it being in Vegas favor in the long run. But the reality is we didnt need Holtz to win, we needed to be more gritty and heavier and holtz doesnt offer that at all. Gotter and him have similar points as it is but Gotter is something the devils need not want. But again bro great video overall because you shined a light on things regarding Holtz that will be factors in the future.

    Well I would not say never, but he is freaky good. I do see huge risk with him getting injured diving too reckless into clean tackles and getting flattened. Hope that risk won't materialize. Kid will be in hall of fame. And then again players have bit different skill sets. And bit early to compare to the greats. Not fan of oilers or McJesus, but only active player who in compares I think is Crosby and not fan of him or Penguins either. That is what comes to superstars. And then Barkov shuts any and all of them down.

    A lot of opinions on this but the smallest one stood out for me. Someone wrote that Beddard got them watching hockey again and that is the most impressive one. Today's cookie cutter hockey all looks the same with practically every team. The rinks are too small because the players are bigger, and faster and more talented. The NHL needs bigger ice surfaces so fans can appreciate the play making or as Orr once said, put the centre line back in play for off sides.

    What’s crazy is, he’s kind of in a slump rn. His slump is better than the other rookies by far…the team around him is so infuriatingly bad, I can’t imagine how frustrated he is. Davidson did him NO favors even before we lost everyone to injury. He leads the team in points as a newly 18 year old kid and every time he touches the puck, he’s surrounded by 4 defenders bc he’s all the opposing defense has to worry about. If he had Kane and Toews with him, he’d be over a point per game…I’ll never understand why Davidson wouldn’t bring them back

  • @1000kings1

    His +/- is -14. Not good. 6 games in Dec even, much better. But his shot pct is down to 5 for the month. Fatigue and frustration showing??? Too early to call him great. Maybe he'll be the first power play only in history. Shot is that good.

    As a current "pick up' goalie I would like to say what the Florida goalie in the first clip was trying to do. as a goalie you play the odds. you look for clues, and if you can correctly guess what a player will do, you can make the the save. Now most players wont shoot that sharp angle shot(most, C. B. is built different) so what I would have done is drop my right leg down (not the leg on the post). reach my stick out for a pokecheck, or blocking a pass out front. here I am playing the odds, I am betting on him not to shoot the sharp angle because I have the post hugged and my "five hole" covered for the most part. I want him to have to lift a pass over my stick where again I am playing the odds that if it goes over my stick it goes over his team mates stick. I am taking away his options to pass and expecting him not to shoot. So where does he go? Behind the net to try to make the pass again but this time from the other side. I am ready for this because I kept my leg up on the post for this exact reason, to push across to the other post where I again play the odds of a player not going for the sharp angle shot. he will need to make a pass out front and now I have given my team time to take away the man out front. C. B. scored because before the florida goalie could even get set up on the post or get his stick flat he roofed the damn thing right passed the goalies ear. C. B. is simply built different. where mcdavid is simply so fast at decision making, C. B. can simply do what players haven't even tried consistently for almost ever.
