Nick Holden is one of the most popular and richest Ice Hockey Player who was born on May 15, 1987 in St. Albert, Alberta, Canada. Holden was born May 15, 1987 in St. Albert to Lynda Holden and John Holden. John Holden, his father, was a former hockey player. His stepbrother played for the Vancouver Giants. He was raised in Alberta, with his siblings Jack and Tiffany. He attended St. Albert Catholic High School. Holden was twelve years old when he got his first job as an ice hockey referee.

After graduating from St. Albert’s, he joined the Chilliwack Bruins in the WHL in 2006 as an undrafted player. Holden, who weighed in at 6.91m (1.91 m), and weighed 200 lbs (91 kg), attracted the attention of Allain Roy from CMG Sports, a professional sports agent. Holden stated that this was when he first “ever thought about …. I never figured I would need an agent.” Holden was awarded a scholarship by the University of the Fraser Valley after his rookie season and invited to the Edmonton Oilers 2007 NHL training camps on an Amateur Tryout. Holden was elected captain after his second season with Boston. He scored 22 goals and 38 assists, for a total 60 points. Holden signed a three-year entry level contract with Columbus Blue Jackets on March 28, 2008. This marked the end of his major junior career.

Following the 2009–10 season, the Blue Jackets switched their AHL affiliate to the Springfield Falcons and Holden began the season with them. After playing in two games for the Falcons, Holden was called up to the NHL as a replacement for the injured Mike Commodore. He made his NHL debut on October 20, 2010, in a 3–1 victory over the Anaheim Ducks and played in five games before being reassigned to the AHL on November 5, 2010. Holden concluded the season with the Falcons and recorded a then-career high 25 points in 67 games. On June 20, 2011, Holden and the Blue Jackets agreed to a one-year, two-way NHL-American Hockey League Contract for the following season.

Holden and his wife Angela have four children together and are devout Christians. He participates in a chapter of Fellowship of Christian Athletes alongside Ryan Carpenter. On September 7, 2011, Holden was inducted into the St. Albert Skating Wall of Fame.

Holden played Junior A-level hockey in the AJHL for the Kodiaks, Sherwood Park Crusaders, and Sherwood Park Crusaders. However, he didn’t like the attention he was getting. Holden stated that he was more interested in earning a college scholarship while playing in the AJHL than playing hockey. Holden was 18 years old when he secured a plumbing apprenticeship that he intended to continue if his hockey career failed. Holden was able to fly under the radar of most scouts, until Chilliwack Bruins general manager Darrell May saw Holden play for the Kodiaks on the night before the 2006 Western Hockey League Entry Draft.

In the 2016–17 season, Holden enjoyed a successful year with the Rangers in establishing new career highs with 11 goals and 34 points in 80 games. He played on the left side for the Rangers due to their depleted defense, and spent time on both the second and first top pairings with Marc Staal and Ryan McDonagh. He played in nearly all games for the Rangers in the postseason, only sitting as a healthy scratch during Game 3 against Montreal. Fellow defenseman Brady Skjei spoke highly of Holden as a teammate, saying “He’s a steady player and has a good shot from the point, obviously…. He makes the simple play, he’s strong, big, skates well….He’s a nice guy, not a rah-rah guy in the room, but everyone respects him.” In spite of this, his future with the Rangers was tenuous and coach Alain Vigneault acknowledged Holden was not guaranteed a spot on the roster in the 2017–18 season. Accurately so, Holden played only 55 games for the Rangers while in the final year of his contract before being traded to the Boston Bruins in exchange for Rob O’Gara and a 2018 third-round draft pick. Holden, who was familiar with Massachusetts having played for the Springfield Falcons, left his wife and children in New York as he joined the team in Toronto. He appeared in 18 games with the Bruins to close out the season with one goal and five points. In the post-season, Holden was relegated to a healthy scratch throughout the run, appearing in just two games.
