Nelson scored two goals on five shots while posting a plus-3 rating in Monday's 6-2 win over the Avalanche.
Nelson opened his 2024-25 scoring tally with back-to-back goals in the second period over a three-minute span, including a short-handed goal that gave the Isles a 4-1 lead. Nelson has reached the 30-goal mark in each of the last three seasons, and he was due to find the back of the net sooner than later based on how active he'd been in the previous two contests. Through three games, Nelson has racked up 10 shots.
