St. Louis Blues left wing Dylan Holloway scored his first career hat trick during their victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Monday evening. Holloway scored his first goal of the game on a slap shot in the opening frame which beat Detroit netminder Cam Talbot. In the second frame, Holloway would find the back of the net for the second time, this time on a snap shot which further extended their lead. Holloway would cap off his first career hat trick with an empty-net goal in the final minutes. This was a much-needed breakout performance for the 23-year-old as he carried a six-game point drought into this game. Before this drought he was riding a seven-game point streak. Holloway will look to kickstart another point streak on Friday evening, against the Nashville Predators.
St. Louis Blues left wing Dylan Holloway (upper body) has avoided serious injury and could be an option for Thursday's matchup against Utah. Holloway was struck by a puck in the neck area in Tuesday's game against Tampa Bay and was taken to the hospital. He returned to the team's practice facility on Wednesday. Holloway has enjoyed a positive start with his new team. He has recorded six points (four goals, two assists) in 13 games with 22 shots and 29 hits. The 23-year-old was recently promoted to the second line, giving him additional fantasy value.
Dylan Holloway Taken To Hospital After Being Hit By A Puck
St. Louis Blues left wing Dylan Holloway was taken to the hospital after he was hit by a puck in Tuesday's 3-2 win over Tampa Bay. He was hit in the neck area with 2:37 remaining in the first period. Holloway managed to finish his shift but was then stretched away from the bench area. The Blues announced that Holloway was alert and stable. This was a scary incident, but it's great to know that the player appears to be fine. However, the Blues likely have to be without him for a bit. After signing an offer sheet to join St. Louis from Edmonton, Holloway has opened the 2024-25 campaign with six points (four goals, two assists) through 13 games. He's filled a top-six role lately due to Robert Thomas' (ankle) absence.
The St. Louis Blues have snapped up forward Dylan Holloway after the Edmonton Oilers elected against matching a two-year, $4.58 million offer sheet. Holloway, a former Hobey Baker Award finalist, moves on from Edmonton after making 89 appearances with the team. He skated in 38 games last term, posting six goals and nine points. Holloway added seven further points (five goals, two assists) in 25 playoff contests as the Oilers reached the Stanley Cup Final for the first time since 2006. The 22-year-old, who was selected 14th in the 2020 draft, didn't play a large role for the team, but he has shown good upside with productive AHL outings. Edmonton received a third-round pick as compensation from the Blues.
Edmonton Oilers forward Dylan Holloway signed a two-year, $4.58 million offer sheet with the St. Louis Blues on Tuesday. The 22-year-old will be on the move if Edmonton doesn't match the offer in seven days. It's going to be a tricky task because the team is currently over the salary limit. The situation is further complicated by St. Louis' decision to also tender an offer sheet to Oilers defenseman Philip Broberg. Holloway has been close to a point-per-game pace in the AHL, but his offensive impact has been limited in the NHL. In 2023-24, Holloway registered nine points (six goals, three assists) in 38 appearances. However, he has averaged close to two hits per game for his NHL career, which makes him valuable in some fantasy formats.
Edmonton Oilers forward Dylan Holloway will make his NHL debut in Game 4 of the Western Conference Final against the Colorado Avalanche on Monday night. The Oilers will be without Evander Kane (suspension) and Kailer Yamamoto (upper-body) in the must-win contest to extend their season, resulting in the 20-year-old forward to make his debut. Holloway was drafted 14th overall in the 2020 NHL draft, and he spent the 2021-22 season with the Bakersfield Condors in the American Hockey League with a total of eight goals and 22 points through 33 games.
