3 years agoNew York Islanders center Brock Nelson (lower body) is expected to miss the next two to four weeks. He was hurt in Sunday's 3-0 loss to Toronto, where he managed to log just eight shifts. The team is already battling COVID-19, so this is horrible news. The selection problems have started to derail the Islanders season, as they have lost six on the bounce and can't seem to score anymore. Getting goals without Nelson will certainly be even tougher, as the 30-year-old has potted a team-high nine goals this season. The next-best scorers, Oliver Wahlstrom and Mathew Barzal, have combined for nine goals, which shows just how important Nelson has been for the Islanders this season.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
