Lindsay Kramer - The Syracuse Post-Standard, November 15, 2011

One of the first things that Syracuse Crunch forward Peter Holland learned in the NHL is that points are hard to get and sometimes even harder to keep.

Holland returned to Syracuse practice on Tuesday after a four-game recall to Anaheim, his initial action with the Ducks. Holland’s first NHL point was an assist, or so he thought. After the game, a review took it away from him in favor of teammate Brandon McMillan.

“It’s a tough league to do well in,” Holland joked. “I was excited about it. But that’s alright.”

Holland bounces back quickly, and subsequently got his first NHL goal, against Vancouver, with his parents in the stands. The Ducks are making a special display out of the puck for him, although the organization hopes he got more from his stay up top than that souvenir.
Holland has the tools to put a lot more pucks into the net. Anaheim wanted him to get a pointed reminder about all the little details that go into the making of a well-rounded player, especially on the defensive end.
