  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Nelson logged an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Oilers. Nelson has three points over his last five games. The 33-year-old center is still in a second-line role, playing alongside Maxim Tsyplakov and Kyle Palmieri as a solid secondary scoring trio. Through 16 contests, Nelson has nine points, 50 shots on net and a plus-3 rating, though he's yet to pick up a power-play point and adds little in the way of physicality.

  Nelson scored a goal in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Devils. Nelson has scored two goals in his last four contests, but the 33-year-old playmaker has struggled to produce at a steady rate. He has six goals, eight points, a plus-1 rating and 49 shots across 15 outings in 2024-25. While his goal total isn't bad, his overall offensive production is subpar by his standards -- Nelson finished each of the previous three campaigns with at least 59 points.
