Career

Philip Holm was born in Stockholm and played in his youth for the youth departments of Huddinge IK and Djurgården hockey . At the beginning of the 2008/09 season he moved to Nacka HK , for whose junior selections he was henceforth active, but also made his men's debut in the third division Division 1 . The defender established himself there the following year and made 33 appearances in which he posted 12 points scorer . Then Holm returned to Djurgården Hockey and ran in the 2010/11 season for their U20 in the J20 SuperElit , the highest junior league in Sweden. He also made his professional debut by playing a game in the first-class Elitserien .

At the beginning of the 2011/12 season, the Swede was regularly used in the A-team of Djurgården Hockey, but rose with the team in his first full professional season from the Elitserien to the Allsvenskan . After two years of second division succeeded in 2014 to rise again, so Holm further in the wake of two years for Djurgården in now under the name Svenska Hockey Ligan played known first Swedish league before the defender left the Greater Stockholm in April 2016 for the first time and Växjö Lakers joined . There he established himself as one of the best defenders in the league, with 21 scorer points on a career record and leading the entire league in the plus / minus statistics (+24).

After the world title, Holm signed a one-year contract with the Vancouver Canucks of the National Hockey League (NHL) in May 2017 . However, the Swedes gave these to their farm team , the Utica Comets , from the American Hockey League (AHL) as part of the preparation for the season . In February 2018, the defender completed his first NHL assignment for Vancouver before being handed over to the Vegas Golden Knights a few days later for the trade deadline . In return, Brendan Leipsic moved to Vancouver. The Golden Knights only used him in the AHL with the Chicago Wolves , before he returned to Europe in July 2018 and signed a contract with Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod in the Continental Hockey League (KHL). He then represented the team at the KHL All-Star Game 2019, before he ventured into the NHL a second time in August 2019 and received a one-year contract with the Chicago Blackhawks .

However, the second move to the North American continent also proved to be ineffective. Until January 2020, the Swede played exclusively for the Rockford IceHogs farm team , before both parties agreed to terminate the contract. Holm then moved to Switzerland for Lausanne HC .

On an international level, Holm made his debut for Sweden at the 2017 World Cup and won the gold medal there with the team.
