Simon Holmstrom News



Holmstrom was a healthy scratch for the Islanders' previous game but will draw back into the lineup Monday vs. the New Jersey Devils. The 21-year-old has five goals, an assist, 34 SOG, and a -3 plus/minus through 44 games played this season.

Holmstrom had three goals, two assists, and four PIMs in 16 games with Bridgeport (AHL) but has been recalled to the Islanders Monday. The 21-year-old struggled in his previous stint with the big club, picking up only two goals, an assist, and 15 SOG through 24 games played earlier this season.

Holmstrom has missed the Islanders' previous six games due to a lower-body injury but will be a game-time decision Tuesday as they take on the Stars. The 21-year-old, 2019 1st round pick (23rd overall) had been having a quiet rookie campaign prior to the injury, with a goal, an assist and eight SOG through 14 games with the Islanders.


Holmstrom was involved in a knee-on-knee collision with Calgary's Sam Bennett a few games back and is now considered day-to-day as he deals with a leg injury but will be placed on the injured reserve. The 2019 1st-round pick (23rd overall) has a goal, an assist, eight SOG and one GWG in his 14 games played this season.
