He has 2 years till UFA(I Believe), so he still is a RFA next summer
Nope, he's UFA next summer.

The only way it doesn't end well is if they give him a long-term deal at 4M+ AAVThis is what they did with de Haan last year where they sign him to a 1 year deal to send him to ufa. Doubt this ends well.
Some team that hasn't watched enough Isles games will overpay him based on production, but it won't be the team that has to watch him play every night.So he's basically not going to be an Islander in 19-20 unless they overpay him.
I love youNash playing his size, two way hockey. Hard time. He one of the best PK players in the world. One of the best defensive wingers in today's game. So yeah, he finna get a fine return like first+. I'm real cool with that. Nash brings that D-game real hard. Nelson doesn't bring anything a sucka needs for the tough playoffs. Nobody will want him at the dead line mark my wise words. I've played the game and coached it.

Isles have a potential #1C in Barzal.Islanders need to just tear it down instead of being a 9/10 team and trying to compete. Iginla and the Flames stayed good enough to push for the playoffs, but not bad enough to get high picks. It's a terrible method to rebuild a franchise.

You know we can re-sign our players - right?
Garth Snow had beef with CDH. Nelson is on his way out for on ice reasons.This is what they did with de Haan last year where they sign him to a 1 year deal to send him to ufa. Doubt this ends well.
Even if Nelson has a strong contract yr,I would be leery of overpaying him on an extension.The only way it doesn't end well is if they give him a long-term deal at 4M+ AAV

Nelson's problem is he is a winger who is being forced regularly to play center. He is a finisher and will score goals, just don't expect any dirty work. Isles should inflate his value and then trade him on for further assets.
He has played center in college but i’d say no. I’m in the minority here but i want to see what Beauvillier can do at 2C.Would Lee be a better option then Nelson at centre.
No, Lee has never played center at the NHL level and Nelson has never played wing at the NHL level.Would Lee be a better option then Nelson at centre.
No, Lee has never played center at the NHL level and Nelson has never played wing at the NHL level.
lot of potentialIsles have a potential #1C in Barzal.
A potential #1D in Dobson,
A potential sniper in Wahlstrom.
Potential #1G in Sorokin, Soderstrom and Skarek.
And some promising youngsters in Beau, Bellows, JHS, Wilde ,Toews, Aho
Why don't we wait and see what the isles kids bring before declaring how mediocre they are?
