New York Islanders forward Brock Nelson accepted a one-year deal on Monday worth $4.25 million, according to Arthur Staple of The Athletic.
Nelson has been a consistent 20-goal scorer for the Islanders over the last few seasons. This past year was the only campaign where he failed to reach the 20-goal mark since the 2013-14 season. He tallied 19 goals and 35 total points.
Throughout his tenure, the forward has been relegated to the middle-six group where he’s developed very streaky gameplay. Nelson picked up five of his 19 goals in the 2017-18 season in just October.
