Fitzgerald was still complimentary of Holtz. I don't watch New Jersey enough, but it seems that Holtz is just struggling being on the right side of the puck enough. That's all. Probably trying to make plays that worked great in junior, but are causing unnecessary turnovers. It just sounds like your average young player going through the growing pains of adjusting to the NHL. "Scoring 13 goals in.. 8 mins of ice" - that's a direct compliment and speaks to Holtz's talent.

Pretty much all he said.
And then he expanded and said it was a lot of guys, he was just asked specifically about Holtz.
Listening to the Marek interview.....yeesh he sounded like one stressed out dude.
Tough days for him right now.
