Arvid Holm (born November 3, 1998) is a Swedish professional ice hockey goaltender who currently plays for Rögle BK of the Swedish Hockey League (SHL). Holm was drafted in the sixth round, 167th overall, of the 2017 NHL Entry Draft by the Winnipeg Jets.

Playing career

Holm played in the native Sweden with Färjestad BK of the Swedish Hockey League (SHL). On 16 June 2020, Holm was signed to a three-year, entry-level contract with his draft club, the Winnipeg Jets.[1]

At the conclusion of his entry-level contract with the Jets, Holm was not tendered a qualifying offer and was released as a free agent. On 1 July, 2023, Holm was promptly signed to a one-year, two-way contract with the Colorado Avalanche.[2] After attending his first training camp with the Avalanche, Holm was re-assigned to begin the 2023–24 season with AHL affiliate, the Colorado Eagles, on 2 October 2023.[3] Holm made 9 appearances with the Eagles through the first half of the season, serving primarily as backup, before he was re-assigned to secondary affilaite, the Utah Grizzlies of the ECHL, on 16 February 2024.[4] Holm split the year between the Eagles and Grizzlies, before concluding the season with the Avalanche in the post-season by serving as backup during the opening playoff game against the Winnipeg Jets. He remained with the squad for the remainder of the playoffs, primarily used as the rotational practice goaltender.

On 10 May 2024, as a pending restricted free agent, Holm opted to return to Sweden by signing a three-year contract with Rögle BK of the SHL.[5]
