Peter Holland announced his retirement from hockey on Wednesday on social media.

A native of Toronto, Holland played 266 NHL games over seven seasons with the Anaheim Ducks, Toronto Maple Leafs, Arizona Coyotes and New York Rangers after being taken with the 15th overall selection of the 2009 NHL Entry Draft out of the Ontario Hockey League's Guelph Storm.

Holland, 31, last played in the NHL during the 2017-2018 season. He relocated to Europe for 2019-2020, spending two seasons with the Kontinental Hockey League's Yakaterinburg Automobilist and Swedish Hockey League's Djurgardens IF.

Holland notes that his enjoyment of the game lessened upon the Dec. 2016 trade from the Leafs to the Coyotes.
