Oilers' Darnell Nurse: Lights lamp in Thursday's loss
Nurse scored a goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Sharks.

He's up to four points, 31 shots on net, 30 hits, 24 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 12 outings overall. Nurse can push for a 40-point pace, so there's a bit more offense he's yet to tap into this season.

Oilers' Darnell Nurse: Opens scoring in loss
Nurse scored a power-play goal on four shots, levied two hits and went minus-3 in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Predators.
Nurse was on the ice with the second power-play unit, which was able to get the Oilers on the board midway through the first period. The 28-year-old blueliner had gone three games without a point prior to Saturday. Nurse is up to two tallies, one helper, 25 shots on net, 22 hits, 20 blocked shots, six PIM and a minus-6 rating through 10 contests. Given the Oilers' reliance on their top power-play unit, Nurse's presence on the second unit typically doesn't move the needle much.

Nurse's offense isn't quite at the usual level yet, but he's added 11 hits, nine blocked shots, four PIM, 15 shots on net and a minus-1 rating, providing his usual solid non-scoring numbers.

Oilers' Darnell Nurse: Given one-game suspension
Nurse will serve an automatic one-game suspension for instigating a fight within the final five minutes of regulation during Wednesday's 4-1 victory over Vegas.
The NHL had the option of overturning the automatic suspension, but chose not to, so Nurse will miss Game 5 of Edmonton's second-round series against Vegas on Friday. He has four assists, 21 PIM, 35 hits and 27 blocks in 10 playoff outings this year. Philip Broberg, who was a healthy scratch Wednesday, might draw back into the lineup in Nurse's absence.

Oilers' Darnell Nurse: Frustration boils over late
Nurse logged an assist, four hits, two blocked shots and 17 PIM in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4.
Nurse snapped a four-game point drought with a helper on a Ryan Nugent-Hopkins tally in the second period. In the third, Nurse earned an instigator penalty, a fighting major and a 10-minute misconduct in a fight with Nicolas Hague. An instigator in the final five minutes of a game results in an automatic suspension, though it can be reviewed and rescinded, so there's still a chance Nurse will be available for Game 5 on Friday. He has four assists, 35 hits, 27 blocked shots and 21 PIM through 10 playoff contests.
