By now, we understand what we get with Riley Nash. Not the 41-point player we saw in Boston, just one season before he came to Columbus. And not even the 20-point a year guy he was for the Hurricanes in the three years prior.
However, Nash has been a constant bottom-six player for Columbus, who also proven himself overall, pretty durable through two seasons in Columbus, only missing a handful of games. He’s been durable compared to just about anyone else on the team, which you can chalk up to bad luck mostly.
It took him a while in year one to seem comfortable, not even scoring his first goal until game 77, and his second year mirrors year one statistically.
