Isles' Nielsen Recovered From Ankle Issue

Nielsen has fully recovered from a high-ankle sprain that hampered him over the final two months of last season, Arthur Staple of Newsday reports.Nielsen is expected to assume a role as the Isles' second- or third-line center in 2015-16, a role that should put another 40-point season in reach, given the playmakers surrounding him. The 31-year-old's ceiling is fairly limited, but his reasonable floor makes him an ideal depth forward in deeper fantasy leagues.
