Avalanche's Brock Nelson: First goal since Halloween
Nelson scored a goal Tuesday in a 6-3 win over Toronto.
It was his first goal since Halloween (five games), and he has just five (six assists) in 19 games this season. We expect Nelson to pick up his scoring pace a little, but right now, he's barely teetering toward a 20-goal season. If he doesn't get there, it would be the first time that happened since the pandemic-shortened season, and the first time in a full season since 2017-18. At 35, Nelson's best-before is coming, and he might be closer than we'd all like with just 11 points in 19 games.

Avalanche's Brock Nelson: Pots goal in Saturday's win
Nelson scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Flames.
Nelson had gone six games without a goal, adding just two assists in that span. Despite the sluggish pace on offense recently, he remains in a second-line role. The veteran center now has four goals, five assists, 27 shots on net, 10 blocked shots, six hits and a plus-3 rating through 14 appearances.

Avalanche's Brock Nelson: Buries goal Wednesday
Nelson scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Stars.
Nelson started the year with a three-point effort, but that's also what he's produced across the last six games combined. The veteran center has three goals, three helpers, 14 shots on net, six blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating across seven appearances. He remains in a second-line role, giving him a decent chance to contribute in any given game, but he's likely to be more of a supporting figure in the Avalanche's offense this year.

Avalanche's Brock Nelson: Five points in first five games
Nelson scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Maple Leafs.
Nelson has a point in each of his last two games and five (two goals, three assists) in five games this season. His four shots Saturday eclipsed the total number he fired to this point in the season (three). Nelson delivered one of the best seasons of his career in 2025-26 (33 goals, 32 assists and 186 shots; 81 games), and his roles as second-line pivot and cog on the second power-play unit should deliver another strong season. His power-play production may be slightly lower this season, though -- it may be hard for Nelson to put up 18 PPP from the second unit.

Avalanche's Brock Nelson: Makes splash with man advantage
Nelson scored a goal and added two assists, all with the man advantage, in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Kings.
Nelson was on the second power-play unit, but that didn't stop him from making a positive impact in that role. The 34-year-old center is coming off another strong year of 65 points and 186 shots on net in 81 regular-season outings in 2025-26. With a firm top-six role and an ability to maintain a high shooting percentage, Nelson should be a useful center option in fantasy.

Avalanche's Brock Nelson: Deposits empty-netter in Game 4
Nelson scored an empty-net goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Monday's 5-2 win over the Wild in Game 4.
Nelson's two goals this postseason have both gone into empty nets. He's at three points over eight playoff outings, which isn't a lot of secondary scoring for a player in a second-line role. He's added 15 shots on net, 10 hits, nine blocked shots, eight PIM and a plus-3 rating while playing in all situations.

Avalanche's Brock Nelson: Fills empty cage
Nelson scored an empty-net goal on two shots and added two hits in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Kings in Game 3.
Nelson entered this contest on an 11-game goal drought, and he hadn't earned a point over his last four contests. He was able to snap the slump with an empty-netter, and he's added six shots on net, six hits, six blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over three playoff games. Prior to this year, Nelson accumulated 27 goals and 27 assists over 85 postseason appearances across nine playoff runs.

Avalanche's Brock Nelson: Will play Thursday
Nelson (undisclosed) is expected to play Thursday versus Seattle, per the NHL media site.
Nelson skipped Tuesday's 3-1 win over Calgary for maintenance reasons as the Avalanche look ahead to their first-round series. He has 33 goals and 65 points in 80 outings with the Avalanche in 2025-26.
