Alex Holtz, a restricted free agent, is currently attending the training camp of the Vegas Golden Knights on a professional tryout (PTO). The young forward, who was the 20th overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft, has shown significant promise during his time with the New Jersey Devils. Holtz's attendance at the Golden Knights camp marks an important opportunity for him to secure a contract with an NHL team following a season where he played mainly in the AHL.

Holtz previously spent the last couple of seasons with the Devils organization, showing flashes of his potential as a goal-scorer. In his last AHL campaign, he recorded several crucial points, raising expectations for his next step in professional hockey. The Golden Knights, known for their sharp player development, may offer Holtz the platform he needs to thrive in the NHL if he impresses during the camp.

Attending training camp is an important milestone for Holtz, as it allows him to showcase his skills against other professional players and gain valuable feedback. The Golden Knights are in need of depth forwards, making this an opportune moment for Holtz to make a strong case for a roster spot. The upcoming weeks will be crucial for the young forward, who remains eager to establish himself in the league and contribute on a competitive team like the Golden Knights.
