Alexander Holtz is staying in Vegas.
The Vegas Golden Knights announced Tuesday that they have signed the 23-year-old forward to a two-year contract, which carries an average annual value of $837,500 and runs through the 2026-27 season.
Holtz was the final restricted free agent without a contract for 2025-26. He played in 53 games with Vegas in 2024-25, recording four goals and 12 points.
A right-shot winger, Holtz also scored seven goals and 13 points in 16 AHL games.
Originally drafted seventh overall by the New Jersey Devils in 2020, the Swedish forward was traded to Vegas last Summer alongside Akira Schmid for a third-round pick in 2025 and Paul Cotter.
In his first three NHL seasons with the Devils, Holtz totalled 19 goals in 110 games.
Vegas begins its season at home on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Kings.
