⭐️⭐️⭐️ Brock Nelson

Brock Nelson showed up and showed out last week. Although the team overall only won one of their three games, Nelson continued to show why he could be a difference-maker on the ice. On the week, Nelson picked up three assists in total.

When the Islanders played the Sharks, Nelson was able to help find Lee in the middle of the second period to get the Islanders on the board. But, he wasn't done on the night as Nelson would also help to find Wahlstrom for his first goal of the night which came at the very end of the second period and gave the Islanders the lead, 3-2.

On Saturday when the Islanders played the Lightning, Nelson was able to find Anthony Beauvillier for a goal to keep the Islanders in this game. Unfortunately, it was not to be, but the Islanders' effort was there and Nelson was a big part of it.
