Philip Holm (born 8 December 1991) is a Swedish ice hockey defenseman who currently competes for Djurgårdens IF in the Swedish Hockey League (SHL).

Playing career

Holm's early development took place with Huddinge IK before he transitioned to Djurgården. During the 2008–09 season, he played for Nacka HK, participating in under-18, under-20, and senior matches within Sweden's third-tier Division 1. The following season, 2010–11, saw him return to Djurgården's under-20 squad.

In February 2011, Holm secured a two-year contract with Djurgården. He made his debut in the Elitserien league in September of that year and netted his first goal the subsequent month. After dedicating six seasons to Djurgården, Holm inked a two-year agreement with SHL competitor Växjö Lakers on 20 April 2016.

Following one campaign with Växjö, Holm activated his NHL out clause and signed a one-year entry-level contract with the Vancouver Canucks on 26 May 2017. Initially assigned to the AHL's Utica Comets, he made his NHL debut in February 2018 but was traded later that month to the Vegas Golden Knights, who placed him with their AHL affiliate, the Chicago Wolves.

On 17 July 2018, Holm agreed to a one-year deal with Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL). Throughout the season, he tallied seven goals and totaled 26 points across 61 games, earning selection to the 2019 KHL All-Star Game.

Holm returned to North America on 13 August 2019 by signing a one-year, two-way contract with the Chicago Blackhawks. After starting the season with their AHL affiliate, the Rockford IceHogs, he mutually parted ways with the club to continue his career in Europe.

On 7 January 2020, Holm joined Lausanne HC competing in Switzerland's National League (NL) for the remainder of the season. As a free agent ahead of the 2020–21 campaign, he rejoined the KHL by signing a one-year contract with Metallurg Magnitogorsk on 20 November 2020. Holm contributed nine points in 22 regular-season contests and led all defensemen in playoff scoring with seven points over 12 games.

On 5 May 2021, Holm committed to a two-year contract with Finnish-based KHL team Jokerit. After Jokerit's exit from the KHL, he returned to Sweden by agreeing to a three-year contract with Örebro HK of the SHL starting from the 2022–23 season.

Following a season playing with SC Rapperswil-Jona Lakers in Switzerland’s National League during 2024–25, Holm made his way back to Djurgården for the SHL's 2025–26 season.
